 * I moved my domain to a new server (godaddy) and got WordPress installed and tried
   to restore my database using these instructions:
 * [http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/restore/](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/restore/)
 * It doesnt offer the browse feature and there isnt an import which is what I used
   at my old server. But when I copy and paste in the box, it says theres a syntax
   error. Any ideas whats going on and how I can fix it so I dont lose all my posts/
   comments? Thanks.
