Thanks guys I appreciate the fast and helpful responses! I had just started reading the faq that seacoast linked to but when I logged on to the site to explore my options it was inexplicably working. As I said I’m no expert but it seems that maybe my host was the problem as catacaustic suggested. I made no changes since last night and today there is no error message. I’ll get in touch with lunarpages to see what I can find out.
