Hi there,

I tried your code (I've never tried to use fox stuff before), and got
the following error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: updatepage() in
/var/www/pmwiki/cookbook/fox.php on line 288

Any idea what I did wrong? All I did was add the fox stuff to my site,
put the include in my config.php, and copy and paste your code into a
page.

thanks,
maria
