 * Ok, I tried it again and found a load of unresolved issues with the same problem.
   Is that what you were trying to tell me?
 * Thanks, guess I will just have to wait.

 * Hi,
 * Add this code in thaccess:
 * php_value memory_limit 64M
 * If it still not work then you can increase the memory limit.
 * Thanks,
