Hi Paul,

I'm unable to replicate this problem with the Apache web server, so it
looks like it's an IIS or Windows issue. We don't officially support
running Mahara on IIS or Windows (see
https://wiki.mahara.org/index.php/System_Administrator%27s_Guide/Requirements
for supported platforms), but I'm willing to submit a patch to fix this
problem if it doesn't take too much effort.

If you're still having this issue, can you tell me what URL you see
after you pick a theme for a page? For instance, after I choose a theme,
my page gets reloaded with a URL like this:

https://vegas.wgtn.cat-
it.co.nz/mahara/htdocs/view/blocks.php?id=6&c=fileimagevideo&new=1

The important part there is the "c=fileimagevideo". The part after it is
meant to be limited to alphabetical characters. If you're getting that
error even though it's alphabetical, then that indicates it's a problem
in how your implementation is handling our param_alpha() function
(probably a problem with preg_match(), specifically).

On the other hand, if your value there is not alphanumeric, that'd mean
it's an entirely different problem.

Cheers,
Aaron
