Thanks for the reply Fred. I tried searching around the getwiki forms and site, but could not find anything on implementing it. Can you direct me to page that has the info?

Re: [Mediawiki-l] Apologies for repost but I need help with this ASAP

I have MW running on a Mac and it only took about 5 minutes to get it running, perfectly. Are you running MW1.7 - did you install PHP5? That might be a silly question. I don't know what would happen if you tried to run MW 1.7 with PHP4. would it run but oddly, or would it not work at all. Interesting - I have loaded PHP5 onto the Mac, but, seems Apache Server keeps turing PHP4 on. What effect this is going to have on MW 1.7, I don't know. I have to track that down. I run MW 1.6.~ page names with spaces get changed to include an underscore - so a wiki page named foo bar would become foo_bar and need to be referenced as [[foo_bar]], but, still displayed as foo bar. Not sure if that is helpful - could point you in a direction. -----Original Message----- >From: Nicholas Buttle <nicholas_buttle(a)yahoo.com> >Sent: Sep 28, 2006 7:16 AM >To: mediawiki-l(a)Wikimedia.org >Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Apologies for repost but I need help with this ASAP > >Just installed MediaWiki on OS X and I have an >internal page with a space in the name... > >Can't seem to link to the page!!!! > >Page name is: > >'Drawing Numbering' > >Link is > >[[Drawing Numbering]] > >Pages without spaces in the name link ok.
