hi all
about 6 or 7 months ago i launched a site written in php with a cms by myself on 1and1 business hosting. the site has several php powered features including a news section where an article is displayed in full, then on the side there is a list of all articles which link to that news page passing a news_id parameter so that article is loaded and displayed.
if the url loaded is just news.php then it displays the most recent article, but if a parameter is passed such as news.php?news_id=1 then it would load the article with news_id of 1. this has been working fine until recently.
if i now load news.php it displays the most recentl article and displays the list of articles down the side and their links correctly. but if i load news.php with a parameter such as url news.php?news_id=5 then it will load the list of articles but for the hyperlinks it creates for each, they are all the wrong parameter id's and therefore when clicked pass the wrong parameter into the url. this has always worked fine up until now, yet it still worked fine tested locally on my desktop's apache installation.
at the same time in the cms there is also problems when updating or deleting the news records too, again it does neither yet adding an item still works fine. again, this has always worked fine up til about the same til and still works fine when i test on my desktop apache installation locally.
has anyone else ever experienced anything similar? could it be that there has been a change on the server by 1and1 for this to suddenly stop work or are there any other explanations as to why? seems odd that if it were my code then it would suddenly work fine for months and then stop working on the host server but still work everywhere else!
the website is www.wolfieswinebar.co.uk
thanks
