Dear Folks, I am having validation problems too, and would appreciate whatever help I can get. I am getting this message in red: "Site failed automatic validation as of 2005-05-28 (make sure URL and site type is correct - if everything is correct, make a request in the forum for assistance)." I have gone through the setup instructions. I have created the three files and installed them in my main directory. I have verified with my hosting company that the server supports .php . And I have added the code to my site's pages (www.dishliving.com). I have also set permissions on the .txt and the .htaccess files to read and write. Still no validation. Thanks again for any advice you can give!
Yes, it was also asking me to "save" a file when I tried to log on in windows, wouldn't even open my site. My Mac opened it just fine - so I didn't realize the problem until your reply - thanks! This problem seems to have happened when I gave the .php, .txt and .access files write permission, 'cause that was the main change I made last night. Now I have removed those files and don't know what to do. Should they be in the .php uploads directory of my site? I am also wondering if I have the code that is supposed to be pasted in our web pages (for .php enabled sites) is in the right place. Is there a particular place in the .html that it is supposed to be? I assumed it went where I wanted the shared ads to appear. Thanks in advance for any advice!
