It works fine for me. Likely it's a glitch in the internet and one of the packets went missing.

All the links are supposed to start with a forward slash.

# absolute paths (minus domain name) - for files uploaded to default directory, no change is needed
$header = '/inc/header.php'; #root path to header
$footer = '/inc/footer.php'; #root path to footer
$path_to_archives = '/mocfc/xbloglite/archive'; #absolute path to archives (no trailing slash)
...

[dera]

[chrismartz]

i can't even get to that page. it says CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers.

[dera]

argh dontworry i dont have enough time for im using text pattern its more of what i need, so i create custom pages with layout and just use the textpattern engine
