Error editing css

[lazygizmo]

While trying to change anything in css (text color - link color ect), i get the following error....

1.
"Required variables have gone missing and execution can not continue. Please try again" What exactly does this mean ? Has something been deleted from server?

2.
How exactly do i increase the value of...
* php_value suhosin.post.max_vars
* php_value suhosin.request.max_vars
Which config file are they in ?

Thanks in advance for any efforts on this.

Put those in your .htaccess file in just that form. Default values are 200 for suhosin.post.max_vars and suhosin.request.max_vars, so if you were to double them, entries in your .htaccess file would look like:

php_value suhosin.post.max_vars=400
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars=400

Try that and see if it helps. If it gives 500 server error, try lowering those values until it goes away.

EDIT: dh is correct. "How to.." next time.

Thanks, I tried what you said Grinderhand but it didnt work. I did find a way around it tho. for anyone with the same issue read on.
SOLUTION
Go to upload/download styles in Admin cp
Download the style you want to edit
open the downloaded .xml in wordpad
Edit the css there, save and import as new style and use as default.

If you were still getting insufficient vars message, increase the value until it goes away. I don't know how far you can go, but I've seen recommendations go as high as 2048.
