Edit remote list

[kev]

I have a few entries in a remote list where the first letter is not a capital letter.

Where and how to I edit this area there 2 files of active email addresses.

News.in
News.txt

What do you mean, you want to edit the name and capitalized first character?

Yes,

Someone has entered 'steve parker' when it should be Steve Parker.

Are you using mySQL?

No just raw files, but I cannot edit either of these files.

I cannot change the permissions. The file permissions are 644 and I cannot change them. I get Error -142: remote chmod failed. If I edit the .txt file and try to save I get:

Server said:
test.txt: Permission denied

Error -160: could not start data transfer

Yes, the files were created from the script so only the script can modify them. I will have a look.

Ah... that explains it.

Yes, some method of correcting the list for errors would be good.

Getting more bad entries, this time it's first and surname all in CAPITALS.

Really need some way of correcting this, or a 'Proper' function.

I guess you should modify the HTML subscribe form to arrange the name and the surname.

I just noticed that there is an option in Preferences->General to use title case :shock:
