 * I have recently transferred a blog that I did not originally install from c-panel
   to godaddy. I uploaded my backup sql file from c-panel and got the following 
   error message from godaddy when uploading the file in php admin:
 * MySQL dump 10.11
    — —————————————————— — Server version 5.0.51a-community /*!
   40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */; MySQL said: #1064–
   You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your
   MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘ï»¿’ at line 1
 * Any suggestions?
 * The tables have been uploaded from the past database and appear in my php admin
   but when I point the wp-config file to the new database and tables instead of
   the default wp_ wordpress install, it appears as a blank page.?
    I would have
   to figure the error message above holds the answer? Thanks for any time and efforts
   on my behalf. Have a wonderful day.
