# Bug reporting?

 * I’m encountering quite a few “database error” messages that seem to be related
   to variable type mismatches or perhaps just plain old bugs in the code.
 * For example, if I edit my user info and leave the ICQ field blank, I get an error
   that says: WordPress database error: [Out of range value adjusted for column ‘
   user_icq’ at row 1]
 * The query reveals that it is trying to update user_icq with ”, but user_icq is
   supposed to be an int. In the profile.php code there is a check to make sure 
   the if there is a value for ICQ that it is all numbers, but nothing that converts”
   into an int so it can be inserted into the database.
 * It seems to me that this is buggy code, but I can’t find any mention of it on
   the forums. Where do I report a bug?
 * Edited to add: I’m using MySQL 5.0, which apparently may be the source of my 
   problems.
