# [Plugin: Comment Saver] Oops!

 * Diagnostic:
 * `Warning: parse_url() expects exactly 1 parameter, 2 given in /home/`_userid_`/
   public_html/wp/wp-content/plugins/comment-saver/comment-saver.php on line 23`
 * I’ve not yet walked through the code to find-out what is happening here, but 
   I notice that there is some Javascript in-play. Perhaps the plugin doesn’t degrade
   gracefully when the user doesn’t have Javascript enabled.
 * Other plugins installed on the ‘blog-in-question include YATCP and Edit Comments
   XT. Theme is Connections Reloaded v1.5.
 * BTW, great idea for a plugin!

 * Okay, I just tried the plugin on a ‘blog which had the default theme, and viewed
   it with Javascript enabled, and got exactly the save error message (except that
   the userid were different).
 * I still haven’t walked-through the code, but my next thought is that this issue
   relates to the installed version of PHP.

 * Yep, as per the PHP documentation, an optional second parameter for `parse_url`
   was added beginning with PHP 5.1.2. If one uses a single parameter, then `parse_url`
   returns an associative array, in which the path is an identifiable element.
 * So my suggestion is that you replace the three invocations
 * `$path = parse_url(get_option('home'), PHP_URL_PATH);`
 * with
 *     ```
       $url_bits = parse_url(get_option('home'));
       $path = $url_bits['path'];
       ```

 * ahh… didn’t realize that was only in php5. I’ve applied your change and tagged
   v1.2. Thanks.
