I'm at a loss. I've been trying to figure this out for days, I am not a professional at this by any means. I am trying to optimize and am entering keywords in the title tag, when I hit save I get this message:
Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /home/content/m/a/r/markcissi/html/includes/common.inc on line 1416
Thoughts? Much appreciated.

Usually errors like that are
Usually errors like that are code problems. You might be using incompatible core and module versions, a buggy module, have leftover files in an updated module, etc.

Versions? How are you entering keywords? What was the most recent significant change you made prior to the error?
Using Drupal 6.15, PHP 5.2.8,
Using Drupal 6.15, PHP 5.2.8, used Google ad word tool to come up wit a list, content/page/edit and entering keywords in page title box words . I updated a couple of modules, of course I can't remember what. Is there a way to find what is causing the conflict?
Thanks
How are you adding the words?
I presume a module; which one? What happens if you disable the module?

That's my thought, but which mod? Trial and error thru all of them? There has to be an easier way.
Have you tried disabling
Have you tried disabling the module that enables page-specific keywords?
I'm on the #drupal-nc IRC right now
Let me know if I can help — that might be quicker than this.
Been there, did that
"but which mod? Trial and error thru all of them? There has to be an easier way."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I only laugh so I won't cry. Sometimes you have to do things the hard way with Drupal. It gets better, eventually. You need to give Drupal a year at least; Anything less than that (for us non-programmers) and you won't make it probably.
That said, hang in there, I've spent 2 weeks or more on problems before. I'm sure you've heard that Drupal has a steep learning curve, it's so very true. But once you get to the top there's a very nice view with good company.
UGH! Fooling with this for
UGH! Fooling with this for about an hour with no results. I'll keep working on it and hopefully have an epiphany and solve this setback. In the interim, should anyone have any insight, it would truly be welcomed and appreciated.
Steps
The diagnosis steps are the same as usual:
Ken Winters
Fooling with?
Can you be a little more specific?
Have you disabled all modules except for core modules?
Have you cleared cache? Messed with performance settings?
Are you using Feed or FeedAPI? I find those to sometimes cause problems for me.
Are you documenting your process here? When I troubleshoot, I find it helpful to write down every step so that I can nail down what module or setting was the culprit.
Tonight's latest. Working on
Tonight's latest. Working on my MAMP site. Updated what mods were on it that needed it. My live site has mods that MAMP does not so I figured I could slowly progress along and try to replicate the problem. Updated Views and Nodewords no problem. Mamp is running Drupal 6.14, Live is running 6.15. I am having so much trouble trying to update MAMP from 6.14 to 6.15. Needless to say I feel that not much has been accomplished this eve. Anyone have any thoughts on updating MAMP? I did it before but for some reason it's not working this time around.

MAMP
I use mamp extensively without issues relating to module or core updates; which isn't to say you're not experiencing problems.
I would simply mirror my live site (files and db) in my mamp environment and make the appropriate updates to the settings.php file to point it to my mamp-served db instance and root directory.
I'm trying not to replicate
I'm trying not to replicate my live site in order to trouble shoot my problem. I updated two mods on my MAMP but am having trouble updating 6.14 to 6.15. Dragged dropped, tried fetch ftp. At a loss. If I can do this my thought is I can proceed step by step and see where the live site is having issues.
Delete Files
You can't just drop in the new files, because some files will need to be deleted (no longer in the new version).
Download the new core, copy your Sites folder into it, move your old site out of the way, and then the new files in. The same process goes for modules: create a new folder, put any third-party libraries back in, move the old one entirely out of the drupal site root and then move the new one back in.

And always run update.php
And always run update.php
I think I officially have a
I think I officially have a mess. Downloaded 6.15, copied sites folder into it, moved old site to a folder I created in my mamp folder, then put 6.15 in htdocs/drupal. Ran update.php. What that created was a set up page. I pulled sites out of 6.15 and brought it back to drupal folder. Site works, mamp folder shows 6.15, go to reports and it is still telling me that there is a 6.15 update. I'm hesitant to do much more just because I am at a loss of what to do and really don't want to screw up my mamp site. Any drupal sages have advice? Thanks..........
Order Matters
The order you do steps in a core update matters. You need the fresh core AND your old sites folder in place AND the most recent database in place to run update.php. The install screen appearing means that you didn't have settings.php in place or something along those lines.
There are updates remaining because the modules didn't exist when you ran update the first time, so run it again. The initial attempt may have broken things so grab a fresh DB dump from live before you run update on MAMP again.

The plot thickens. I have no
The plot thickens. I have no idea why but I thought of logging in as my friend Jim Switzer (yes Coalmarch Jim). I set him up an account so that he could peek and tweek. Well lo and behold, I am able to enter keywords in the title section and don't get this "Unsupported operand types in /home/content/m/a/r/markcissi/html/includes/common.inc on line 1416"
So..... what does that mean? Oh mamp is still messed up...........
MAMP hosed
If you want to get together for lunch or coffee on day this week I'd be happy to sit down and try to help iron out your MAMP problems.

Yes! Only this week is not
Yes! Only this week is not good, I'm going in for some orthopedic surgery on Wed. Perhaps coffee next week? I'm chipping away at this but would gladly welcome any help. I solved the 1045 error but the local site is still not showing properly.

Help - help with irc password
I connected several times to irc freenode, and then joined #drupal-nc. Today, nickserv asks me to identify, and keeps telling me that the password I enter is invalid. I have tried various passwords, and get the same result. Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
Try a different nick?
It may be that someone else is squatting on your nick? I would say try the java client but it looks like irc.freenode.net is displaying phpinfo() at the moment (oops).
