    Hi

    all of you having problems with the installer please check your magic quotes settings in the php.ini file.

    they have to be:
    magic_quotes_gpc = off
    magic_quotes_runtime = off
    magic_quotes_sybase = on

    also, the variables order has to be

    variables_order = "EPGCS"

    with the 1.40 version of na basic, the installer.php3 and installer2.php3 (and some other files) will work even with other settings, but there WILL be problems in the documents editor and possibly other na basic applications. (missing font tags, etc).

    if you cant change the values in the php.ini file (e.g. because you are using webspace from a provider) and you are using an apache webserver, you can change these settings by adding

    php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0
    php_value magic_quotes_runtime 0
    php_value magic_quotes_sybase 0
    php_value variables_order EGPCS

    to your .htaccess file.

    changes in na_basic to work even with other magic quotes / variables order settings are planned, but for now there is no other way than changing these settings manually :-/

      an error: you said that the order has got to be EPGCS but in the addings you gave a WRONG order. the correct insertion must be:

      php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0
      php_value magic_quotes_runtime 0
      php_value magic_quotes_sybase 0
      php_value variables_order EPGCS
