HTML error 503 when writing Article

I recently wrote an article (http://www.iamdanielmarino.com/blog/the-jayly-news) to publish on my blog and when I tried publishing it, I got an HTML error 503. I tested it line by line and narrowed it down to this line:

$theNews = curl_exec($ch); // this is enwrapped in <pre> tags

whenever I stripped out “curl_exec($ch);” or any letter of “curl_exec” it would publish/save correctly without the error. Is this conflicting with a TXP function or object?

I was able to trick it by creating a class called “letter-x” and applying the following style to it:

.letter-x:after { content: “x”; }

I substituted the letter “x” in “curl_exec($ch)” with <span class=“letter-x”></span> which works fine, but it’s not very semantic, and doesn’t work in IE6.

Anyone else have problems like this?

Chances are you have tripped over mod_security. You can verify this by checking your server’s error log.
