Hello,
I'm trying to upload some text to a table. It works perfectly well with one text box called 'Title' however when I add a second called 'Instructions' it comes up with this error:
An error occurred in script 'C:\wamp\www\html\upload_instructions.php' on line 24:
eregi() [function.eregi]: REG_BADBR
Can you please help. Thank you.
