The $1 is your problem. You have to start a variable with a letter and not a number. Try to change that and it should work.

What shall i change it to? I really suck at PHP.

You'd have to change all instances of $1 in your script to something such as $one.

jdk · 12-16-2005, 06:39 PM

Or any $variable except $# where # is an integer.
