without the rest of the code inc_rate.php so that anyone can find what the functions getcomments() and submitcomments() is supposed to do, its a little difficult

Member Avatar for almostbob

first pass
inc_rate.php must be contains a lot of <header> processing

try at the top of the code

<?php require('inc_rate.php'); ?>

then your page
and at the location you want the response

<?php getComments("1");
submitComments("1","$PHP_SELF"); ?>

havent yet read through all the include file,
which also has other includes in it, real spaghetti code,

i get this error
