Now pay attention, 007.
The post two posts ago that I posted when I couldn’t post the post I just posted complained about not being able to post a post was referring to the fact that whenever I tried to post the post I’ve just posted before this post, I’d get a post error telling me I wasn’t allowed to post because I didn’t have access to the post function.
However, I’ve now posted the post I wanted to post.
I’ve marked a sentence in the preceding entry with an asterisk. This, as it turns out, is the line that is causing me trouble and hence why it’s got an out of place colon at the end of the sentence. Originally it ended
…so I’ve resorted to using the C-URL functions instead.
except without the hyphen in the word CURL. But it always throws an error - just like it did in this post when I tried it just now. It’s obviously to do with a combination of words because I have no problem saving the entry with them all in, as long as they’re not in that order.
If you use Wordpress, do you fancy copying that line and trying to save it yourself and see what happens for you?
UPDATE: the problem is to do with the word curl. Writing it is fine as long as there is no space after the word. So if I wanted to write “curl_up and die”, I wouldn’t be able to use a space. Weird.

It’s something about the ‘curl‘ functions in PHP - I’m wondering if it’s a reserved word in PHP, or something bizarre.
Then again, maybe if there’s some quotes or single quotes in the post, maybe it’s trying to run a ‘curl’ command…
