So far I must agree with Angela; either there's some little annoying syntactical goof-up that you forgot to mention or this part simply doesn't work.  Maybe in lesson 8?

But all that aside, thanks for the great tutorial; you're taking my PHP skills to the next level. :)

Put the following right at the very top of your document:
ob_start();
and this at the bottom:
ob_flush();
-- worked for me

empty returns also true if the string is "0"

Can you use inline styles within the text area like in wordpress?

[MrPatco]

Thanks for response, but I already have it as "posts". Any other ideas?

[GoranMarkovic]

How to edit code to put image into posts?

[thierrdel]

the message error can not be display on the web but say some thing like
[] operator not supported for strings in on line 13

[MrPatco]

I have everything as u did.. errors works fine but when I fill in all fields and submit nothing is stored in the database and no errors :S any ideas? also when I added the last thing "index(dot)php?id={$id}"
I get it as "index(dot)html?id={$id}" in the browser :

[MrPatco]

Yes yes mine is the exact same but not working :/ i fixed the other problem i had now it shows "ocalhost/index . php?id=0" but does not add a post in the database

People that are having issues with errors not displaying should make sure there is no whitespace between the opening and closing tags for the textarea element. i.e. <textarea>(no space here)<?php code?>(no space here)</textarea>. If you have moved the closing tag to a new line as many text editors do automatically then this space is added to the text area, but you're unable to see it, and it causes the textarea element to be 'non-empty'.

[thierrdel]

with the error syntax do not work and show this message

[GiovannyCapone]

the $errors messages do not desplayed!!

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at in on line 32

[MrPatco]

I have no idea since I haven't been able to fix it for myself yet.

[Mrcomtech]

It's just two square brackets, he's using a strange font that makes it appear as if it's a square.
