Dear God.. No!!! It apears my blog is down.. oh the pain of it all!!! Um, I'm sorta new hear, I don't know PHP, MySQL, or XHTML too well.. A few days ago I had a problem with web standards authorizations getting in the way of my ability to make posts with Amazon affiliate links.. to rectify this problem I followed the instructions in this forum topic thing: http://forums.b2evolution.net/viewtopic.php?t=3721

I more or less followed the instructions verbatum.. accept that I didn't turn on and off the HTML checker.. However I did get different results from the expected results (as I mentioned in my question at the end of that topic thread), but still.. it wasn't enough to break the blog...

Now.. a few days latter.. I go to the link where my blog is supposed to be at (http://www.mattsearles.com/zarmattathustra/) and I get this:

Warning: Unknown(/home/msearles/public_html/zarmattathustra/index.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown(/home/msearles/public_html/zarmattathustra/index.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

Warning: (null)(): Failed opening '/home/msearles/public_html/zarmattathustra/index.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

What does all that mean? What do I do? Does this problem have a thing to do with my editing of the formating php file? I can still view the blog from the administration area.. Do I need to reinstall the software? Any suggestion?

thanks
matt
