My great host, hostgator, fixed the issue quickly and without complaint. you should use them to host your site cuz they are great
Haven’t heard from hostgator yet – there’s obviously a compatibility issue, and I’m sure they’ll handle it cuz they are great – but I removed the line of offending code, which didn’t seem to make much of a difference to my site anyhow.
Sorry for the issues – enjoy!….
apologies. i think my host upgraded to a newer version of php, and my main site seems to be giving some odd error messages (i am also not running the most recent wordpress on my backend, as i worry about my custom plug-ins, and this may be causing a few issues, too). I’ve mailed support and hope to have the ugly banners gone soon. sorry for the issues.
