    Im not very good in PHP and usually I just go to admin to add new categories. I just set up this blog using 2.2.1 version of wordpress script with the help of Installity.com to install.

    Whenever I try to add new category the form is not functioning (it not appear any error message). After I click the add category button, the category list not updating and no new category is added. Please help :(

    you shouldn't have to add them manually. Sounds like you may have faulty WordPress install.

    I had this problem a while back, I was able to fix it by downloading the same version of WP (if the newest version you are using) and over write all the files (basically doing an WP update)

    It was fixed instantly, I don't know why it happened in the first place, but that fixed it. Good luck!

    Thx for d suggestion Evelester. Now while I want to fix it up, a new problem accured, everytime I open my blog url, these error will appear

    WordPress database error: [Got error 127 from table handler]
    SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'home' LIMIT 1

    WordPress database error: [Got error 127 from table handler]
    SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'hack_file' LIMIT 1

    .......................(too long to be included in this post)... until

    WordPress database error: [Got error 134 from table handler]
    SELECT option_value FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'blog_public' LIMIT 1

    the url : www.hisdir.com/college

    I have a rough idea that this prob is cause by database error but Im not sure what is the exact problem. :(
