 * I received the following error message when I tried to Activate this plugin. 
   Anyone know what is up?
 * >  Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

 * I just looked at that module — class.dandyid.php — it looks to be fine.
 * No weird trailing characters, syntax looks good.
 * This plugin does require PHP 5.0 on the server.
 * Can you verify what version of PHP is running on your server?
 * Glad to help here…
 * Thanks, Neil (plugin author)

 * Hi Dgold,
 * I just updated the Plugin to Version: 1.0.4. If you get a chance, please try 
   it out. (I updated class.dandyid.php to increase PHP backward compatibility.)
 * Thanks, Neil

 * It now activates. Thank you. Server in question is on PHP 4.x – is that going
   to prevent it from fully working?
 * I was wondering if you could tell me how to put this plugin in my sidebar without
   using Widgets. Is there a function / template tag for it? (EDIT: Ok well I guess
   I could just put the DandyID java code and not use the plugin, is that the best
   call?)
 * Thanks Neil. Dgold

 * When I activate Dandy 1.1.0 in WP 2.7, I get “Fatal error: Call to undefined 
   function curl_init() in /path/to/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/dandyid-services/
   class.dandyid.php on line 87”.
 * Any ideas?

 * I’m moving this to it’s own post. Just realized that this is a different issue.
