when you fill out the entry form and click submit, where your submission should appear, there is all little symbols like $\*^% and stuff and all the other dynamic text boxes will up with symbols aswell.

What should happen? And what’s the code that feeds the dynamic texts?

</div>

your submission should appear in a scrollable text box, theres something wrong with the php file i think, or this code

NumLow = 0;  
NumHigh = 10;  
loadVariablesNum (“GuestBook.php?NumLow=”+NumLow+"&NumHigh="+NumHigh+"&R="+random(999), 0);  
stop();

Hi joso,

I take it you signed up then. Because you’re using PHP - or did was something else the problem, not your ISP?

Is there a link to your site so we can see how it runs (the guestbook)?

$NumEntries = count($DataArray) - 1;

print "&TotalEntries=$NumEntries&NumLow=$NumLow&NumHigh=$NumHigh&GuestBook=";
for ($n = $NumLow; $n &lt; $NumHigh; $n++) {
print $DataArray[$n];
	if (!$DataArray[$n]) {
