In creating a custom block I inadvertantly wrote a bad line of php and couldn't get back into the block to edit the php. In the struggle to get back in I logged out and now cannot get my login box. In the MYSQL table called blocks I can see the bit of code I want to change to put things right agaon but PHPMyAdmin doesn't want to let me edit it. If I can edit this I should be finally able to get my login box back and get back into the Admin area of my project and get started again. Any ideas? The version I am using is Drupal 5.5

I seem to have solved it now and I am tidying up. The solution was:

a) delete my custom block (which was located in the header region) by going into phpMyAdmin and removing its record from both the blocks table and the boxes table

b) using my path http://localhost/drupal-5.5/user to access drupal's built in login box then accessing the Admin area

c) Setting up again my custom log in page/box

d) recreating my custom block and locating it in header region

e) kissing the ground because I had been smart enough to save snippets of code before the sky fell in
