\r
73 If a database error occurs while editing the database, the error returned should be 'DatabaseError' in the $error scalar and the information about the error placed in the $errorext scalar.<br><br>
\r
75 If (when using a file-based database module) the database module can't be edited because of invalid permissions set then the error returned should be 'InvalidPermissionsSet' in the $error scalar.
