Hi GreenGray ,

I wonder if your host has some extra security protection on it? There might be some Joomla component or PHP module that detects when a GET or POST request contains "suspicious" text, and forces a server error.

In this case, it may be being triggered by SQL commands contained in the text field.

Can you confirm that this only happens when the PHP box contains SQL code? If you just put in some plain text, does it save that ok?

Cheers,
Stephen

So what happens if you just have a simple comment, e.g.

// example here...

Does that allow you to save? If so, I'm positive it's a Joomla or PHP security module of some sort that's preventing the other things from saving.

Hey can you tell me what the setting was? Is it something in core Joomla, or an extension, or some sort of PHP setting?

(just so I can tell people what to look for when they report the same problem).

Cheers,
Stephen

Oooh, that's nasty! Glad it works though.
