I just have download the pixelpost 1.5 and modify the file pixelpost.php (with microsoft word) but the extension is still .php.
Do you think that the use of Word may have had an influence?

i'm not sure but it is better to use another program like ultraedit or dreamweaver, they dont insert metadata in the code, but pixelpost.php it is only for database conecction, perhaps the problem is in another modified file.

You should never edit any configuration file with WORD!

You need an EDITOR to do this, not a WORDPROCESSOR

Text editors (modern examples of which include Notepad, Emacs and vi), were the precursors of word processors. While offering facilities for composing and editing text, they do not format documents.

A word processor (more formally a document preparation system) is a computer application used for the production (including composition, editing, formatting, and possibly printing) of any sort of printable material.

A text editor is software application used for editing plain text. It is distinguished from a word processor in that it does not manage document formatting or other features commonly used in desktop publishing.

that is a big difference and unfortunately in the times of Bill Gates, many people think that WORD is the only program where you can enter text ;=)

WORDPAD is also a textprocessor!

please use an editor, you have at least notepad at your machine!

You are right Connie!

I like to work with notepad++
english (http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/about.php) / german (http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/de/about.php)

Notepad++ is a free source code editor (and Notepad replacement), which supports several programming languages, running under the MS Windows environment.
