I have the board set up so anyone can post - don't need to register or log in. Works great for a thousand or so souls, but this one person gets the following msg and cannot post msgs.

"The host you are trying to send the input from is not a valid host."

Any suggestions?? - Tanks!, as my Norweigian grandfather used to say.

This happens to some users behind various proxy servers or if they are using something that manipulates the referer variable. If there is no way for them to get around this then you need to comment out the line in addpost.php that looks like this:

$html -> check_refer($Cat);
