Hey Angela,
I recently started using dotcomments and I found I got some sort of error
when everything should have been working right. What I was not doing was
not setting the comments.php page (or whatever you named it) to access
777. In fact, 755 should work to, but try 777 and if your system doesnt
work, do 755.
Dont know what I'm talking about? Whatever ftp client you use (i use
SmartFTP), it should have access options in a properties part of each file
that you can set. This sets read, write, execute access from different
parties. I believe the UNIX command is CHCOM, but dont quote me on that,
I use SmartFTP to make it easy. If you do get that perticular program,
right click on the file you want to change access to, click properties,
and change the access options in the text box with the three numbers in it
(you can also select click boxes for each read/write/execute, but the
numbers is easier for me.)
Anyway, thats the problem I encountered, and I hope it helps you.
