try changing line 55:
$bylawsRecordset_i->bindParam("text", "".(isset($_SESSION['MM_Username'])?$_SESSION['MM_Username']:"") ."", "-1"); //colname
to:
$bylawsRecordset_i->bindParam("s", "".(isset($_SESSION['MM_Username'])?$_SESSION['MM_Username']:"") ."", "-1"); //colname
if the error persists, I'll need to troubleshoot directly, see the private message section.
