I haven't sold anything on eBay for a little while but I remember that they only accept(ed) pictures for your items. Wouldn't it be great if they allowed you to quickly upload a video instead? Rather than just embed a video in your description, you upload a main video for the actual item where you show the item from a few angles, show it working, and just seem more legit. You could record a basic 20 second video just as easily as taking a few snapshots and looking for the best. A video would make you seem more legit, and it'd show the item actually working and in situ. Just an idea.
Hi Peter,
Sorry to be off topic but I couldn't find an email address.
I read an artical on someones blog with a comment from you about SQL.
I have a big problem because i can not restore my backup! Would you be so kind in helping me out?
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
What is the problem with it?? How do I solve it?
Please?
thx
Ron

But anyway, you're trying to load a MySQL 5 dump into MySQL 4 or something. Just remove the DEFAULT CURRET_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP stuff from each of the timestamp definition lines and you should be okay.

Sorry I missed your link.
But thanks to you it's working!! THX!!
But...........
After updating to 2.05 I got the "famous" error 500 message.
It's impossible to go to my dashboard.
I uploaded the tune-up plugin but I can't see if it's activated.
The work around "http://ronsrace.nl/wp-admin/plugins.php does not work.
Any suggestions how I can open my dashboard??
thx
Ron
Posted by: Ron at November 10, 2006 06:48 PMIf you're talking about WordPress, then I have no idea.. except I've noticed that on slightly crappy Web hosts, the dashboard doesn't work since I think the Dashboard is doing some sort of remote include.. and that can fail in many cases. It's not too critical though if the rest works.

Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host's database server is down.
