 * When editing a post using CVS, I got the following error:
    Fatal error: Call 
   to undefined function: floatval() in /wordpress/wp-admin/b2edit.php on line 205
   I was trying to include images in the original post using the image quicktag,
   if that helps.

 * Actually, it’s doing it with any entry I attempt to edit. I’m using a fresh install
   of today’s CVS.

 * I just commited a change to b2-include/b2functions.php. See if it helps. It adds
   the following code near the top:
    if (!function_exists(‘floatval’)) { function
   floatval($string) { return ((float) $string); } } The floatval() function was
   added in PHP 4.2.0, so I’m guessing you have an older version of PHP.

 * I’ll try that, thanks.
    And yes, I’m using Sourceforge, which is still on 4.1.2.
