A client approached me with various issues on their site which some one else built. I have never used modx. They are running MODx Revolution MODx Revolution 2.0.0-pl rev7212. Basically the problem is when i login to the manager I see all the navigation buttons at the top but they only take me to blank pages. http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/2772/captur1111e.png No matter what i click on nothign loads. I jsut see the nav bar and a white page. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've tried almost everything suggested here on the forums for similar issues. I’m totally new to MODX.

Don't worry about the closing tag, in purely PHP files the tag is not required. I suspect you may have a corrupted download. I would recommend that you download MODX again and start from scratch :) mary Batsile

It clarifies the missing sample site but may also explain why the site will not load up as the site is missing. The MySQL version my ISP has for my hosting account is ver 5.0.37 Thanks for your prompt feedback Mary.
