“This page cannot be accessed directly”?
Whenever I try to submit my form, I get the following error: Error: This page cannot be accessed directly. It doesn’t go away no matter what I do!
You MUST name the submit button from your form “submit”. Instructions on how to do this can be found in the readme file, but basically this is the general idea:
Your form will have a submit button for it to work properly. The code will look something like this:
<input type="submit" value="Send form" />
For the form to work correctly, you need to modify that code so that it looks like this:
<input type="submit" value="Send form" name="submit" />
See the name="submit" part? That part MUST be included for the form to work properly.

Can I remove the credit line that says “Powered by [name of script here]” and/or put it on a separate page?
No. The conditions of you using our scripts are that the credit line is not removed in any way, shape or form. You may not remove the credit line, or move it to another place. If you would like to do this, you will need written permission from the script author first, and they may charge you for this. Our staff put many hours into creating, testing and securing the scripts they write. They make no money from these scripts and simply want recognition for their work.
All scripts available at CodeGrrl.com are LINKWARE. This means that you MUST provide a link back to CodeGrrl.com, and if there is a credit line embedded into the script, you are NOT to remove it, as this violates our terms of use.

What happened to Flinx, PHPFanBase, PHPCalendar, PHPCurrently, etc?
What happened to Flinx/PHPFanBase/PHPCalendar/PHPCurrently and other scripts you used to offer? I can’t find them in the Scripts section anymore! Where can I download it? Can you email it to me?
Several CodeGrrl scripts, including PHPFanBase, Flinx, Flinx Collective, FA-PHPHosting, sflinks, PHPAffili8, PHPCurrently, PHPCalendar, PHPClique, and PHPQuotes, have been taken down off CodeGrrl temporarily. We have decided to take this action after we were made aware of several security risks with these scripts. In a worst-case scenario, having them installed could lead to your site being hacked.
Obviously, we are horrified by this as the last thing we want is to endanger the sites of our visitors! So we have taken the scripts offline while we are working hard to secure them. They will be available here again once we are sure the security problems have been fixed.
No, we will not email the old version to you in the mean time. It is insecure and we do not recommend you use it at this time. Please be patient and keep an eye on the Updates blog - we’ll post there when the scripts are back online!

Where did you get the little icons that are used all over the site?
I got them from FamFamFam, they’re part of a set called Silk Icons. This awesome set is free for non-commercial use, and I really love it. There literally is an icon for everything!
