Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Bug? Pages unexpectedly deleated...

OK, I've reached the point where I could go through all the same steps: * Jeb was surfing in admin mode when he got no page * buyorganic.org runs PHP 3.0 Unfortunately I wasn't able to reproduce the bug. The only differences I see are he's using 3.0.18 and I'm using 3.0.12; and I had to copy the page source of MountainPeoplesOrder from the [info] link on buyorganic.org, b/c the page is locked. So I might have a variation in the page source. Jeb is also using OpenSSL, but I can't see that making any difference. We could use a listing from phpinfo() to look for other things. At this point the only thing I can think of is to compile 3.0.18 here and try it out.
