Save problem?

[Rotsj]

I have downloaded and installed snippetmaster Lite. Everything seems to work perfectly, installation is very simple. I inserthed the snippet lines and chmod 666 the files, and the files are recognised by snippet and are editable. So far so good...
But when i try to save my changes, i get a display that my changes have been saved but they are not?

Does anyone know what's wrong?

I'm sorry, problem occurs just on my PC at home.

I had had the same problem with site I built for a client but found a fix.  The problem seemed to be an issue with the version of Internet Explorer that was used.  Every computer that wouldn't change content did after I upgraded their IE to the latest...  Food for thought.  Possibly add this problem to the faq or read me because it looks as if it's working perfectly, but will not change anything.

Very interesting!  

What version of Internet Explorer are you using?  

What is your Operating System?

I'm in the same situation but I'm running WinXP Pro SP2, IE 6.0.2900.2180_xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158 (Update Versions:; SP2;)

But I have reason to believe it isn't because when I do an update the text of the files stays the same, however it tosses in ^M's which I can see by opening the files on the server with VI before and after saving the file.



But sadly at this point I'm at a loss.  I think I've done all I can on this one...

OK.. what I suggest doing then, is signing up for the mailing list announcements (www.snippetmaster.com), and then in about 2 weeks or so I will be announcing the NEW version of snippetmaster which uses a totally new editor.

This editor is fully compatible with IE, firefox, mozilla, and also the mac operating system.  

So I believe that these problems will be removed in 2 weeks or so.  

Cheers!

Very cool!

Still not having the best of luck these days...  Not sure if anything else has come up along these lines but I wanted to drop another line since it's been awhile with some details.  With multiple client side/user side situations with multiple browsers and operating systems all works as it should in a Virtuozzo VPS hosted site but doesn't seem to want to work on any Ensim/Webppliance shared sites.

It's been tested in low security mode, 3.1 compatibility, high security mode.  Safe Mode on & Off.  You name it.  It just doesn't actually change the visible text.

Stumps me how it can change the file, but won't change the text.  That's wild.

Well, as you can see the new version is a bit delayed.     I'm still hoping to have it out very soon, but development has gone slower then I like due to my time being required at my other business.   

I've since hired a programmer to help with the work, and he's getting close to having things completed and ready for testing.

In the meantime, if you could send me your config.inc.php file (henri @ www.snippetmaster.com) I will take a look and see if I can figure out this problem.  In your email, please let me know the exact step by step procedure to recreate the problem...

Thanks!

Have you tried using the multiple method? http://www.snippetmaster.com/install.html#multiple  The advantage is the changes are actually done to a text file that you call with php or SSI into your html file, and you only have to chmod the .txt file to 666 rather than the html file. Worth a shot...

I sure have.  That's my preferred method.  I've tried just uploading files with 3 lines

Code:

<snippet name="Industry News">

</snippet>

I've tried encapsulating the text in the snippet tags with each tag on their own lines... 

Thanks though!

Well that's so odd... I've set up SM lite on several different servers and so far, (knock on wood) it's always worked right out of the chute...

It took me about 2 seconds to get a test install on my junk/testing/throwaway site.  Works like a charm exactly as anyone would ever expect or hope.  On the server I actually care about, nada.  Technology always works like that, doesn't it?
