storage class specified for parameter

im getting "storage class specified for parameter" from gcc, what does it mean?

it points to these lines:

Code:

int replacestring(char *src, char search[], char replace[]);
int replaceallstrings(char *src, char search[], char replace[]);
int replacechar(char *src, int search, int replace);
int replaceallchars(char *src, int search, int replace);

here the rest of the code.

Code:

int replacestring(char *src, char search[], char replace[]) {
	char *spot = strstr(src, search);
	char *data = NULL;

	if(spot != NULL) {
    		data = malloc( strlen(spot) + 1 );
    		strcpy(data, spot);

    		*spot = '\0';
    		strcat(src, replace);

        	spot = &data[strlen(search)];
    		strcat(src, spot);
	} else
    		return 1;

	return 0;
}

int replaceallstrings(char *src, char search[], char replace[]) {
	while( replacestring(src, search, replace) == 0 )
    		;;

	return 0;
}

int replacechar(char *src, int search, int replace) {
	char *spot = strchr(src, search);

	if(spot != NULL)
    		*spot = replace;
	else
    		return 1;

	return 0;
}

int replaceallchars(char *src, int search, int replace) {
	while( replacechar(src, search, replace) == 0 )
    		;;

	return 0;
}

i have str_replace.c and str_replace.h. in a seperate file called html.c str_replace.h is included in it.

when i compiled str_replace.c by its self the only error i get is that there is no main.

i did run "gcc -E html.c > prog.i", im not sure what to do with prog.i, it looks ok to me but this is the first time i ever used the -E flag.

can any one take a look at it?

You're including .c files inside .h files - this is bad.

i thought headers werent supposed to have any code in them? how do they accomplsih anything if they dont include a source file?

That 'extern int search' is the cause of the problem

i dont see whats the matter with that, arent headers supposed to have externs? i want to use the functions outside of that source file so doesnt it have to be extern-ed.
