Thanks; removed it. (should have been clearer that it was ONLY the dates on which I’d posted (while not hovered) whose color I couldn’t find, but moot point now. Really appreciate your pointing me to the tag.

I’m happy for them to code as much as their hearts desire, but the code looks ugly. Thanks!

Sorry, the code corrupted my post. I can’t hide that code. That’s what I’m trying to say. I just..can’t…hide…the…code…

I’ve still got the following code popping up for visitors:
a href="" title="" rel=""> <b><br />
<blockquote cite=""> <code> <em> <i> <strike> <strong>
Can’t find it to hide it.

Finally…my host name is not localhost, or raisingdevils_com, as it appears to be when installing the database…it is raisingdevils.com.
So at the very least, the start page is UP! Thanks just for answering, knowing help is out there helped keep me whacking away at it.

Good point–I copied it, so it didn’t come from me. Well, the mystery will never be solved. I re-installed EVERYTHING, even redid the config page, and now I am getting what appears to be a standard “error establishing database connection”. THe trouble is, I’ve been over it and over it. right name, right password, right permissions, no extra code or spaces introduced. I’m at a loss.

Same error.

Yes. I think I’m going to try re-uploading with FTP.

No luck at 777–same error message.

I”m uploading with the cpanel file manager, because that’s what I’ve got. I’ll delete and re-upload with another tool if you can suggest one.

Permissions: rw-r-r (I horsed around with changing those, but the error message didn’t change. THanks.
