Hi again,
why does the text message work with this code ,define('HEADING_TITLE', 'This is my new line.');

but does not work with this code
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'where the pro's go');

To edit the files on your PC for customizing, you will need a text editor. A good free one with syntax highlighting is Crimson Editor or Notepad++.

What text editor are you using then, to make changes to the .php files??

You need to "escape" the apostrophe with a backslash, i.e. enter it as:

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'where the pro\'s go');

However, a more general piece of advice on forum etiquette, dredging up a five year old forum thread and then taking it off in an unrelated direction won't win you many friends from those who like a well-ordered forum. if you have a new question, I recommend starting a new thread.
