Actually, now that you mention it, I think someone reported this problem in the Header Tags SEO thread and it was spcific to IE. If you know the fix, or the contribution, you are referring to, please let me know since it will save me the work of having to find the solution myself. :)

Jack, I am sure you have a handle on this issue, but I just downloaded Firefox tonight and took a look at that page I reported to you. In Firefox it's fine.

So for Admin>>Links Manager II>>Links

In IE8 the page display is distorted (meaning the content is pushed downward)
In Firefox/3.6.13 the page displays correctly.

Just feedback is all....thanks
I am not a professional webmaster or PHP coder by background or training but I will try to help as best I can.
I remember what it was like when I first started with osC. It can be overwhelming.
However, I strongly recommend considering hiring a professional for extensive site modifications, site cleaning, etc.
There are several good pros here on osCommerce. Look around, you'll figure out who they are.

Hi Jack,

installed 1.29 by uploading the files appeared okayt, but I dont want people to upload there images to the site, so prefer just to have the the old image url option only.

would i need to modify much to keep the new functionality and still use the image url in submit links and in admin?

maybe useful tohave as option selected in admin or to haev the option for the link submitter, if they want to upload or use the url?

Thanks, I did note that previously submitted image urls worked fine.
Getting better with mods but no programmer am I.

Hello Jack,

Installed your contribution but of course I'm getting a error :rolleyes:

When clicking on Link Categories following error message shows up?

Not Found

The requested URL /catalog/addy/FILENAME_LINKS_CATEGORIES was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.2.16 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at www.koolkatjazz.com Port 80

All other links are working?

Please advise

Cheers

No, it's not possible. It's not a simple change to add that code back in but it can be done.

Whenever you see capital letters in an error like that, it almost always means a step was missed in the installation. Search the install instructions for FILENAME_LINKS_CATEGORIES and you should be able to find the mistake.

Do I have to re-run links_setup.php?

I have re-uploaded everything else?

No, that is for the database changes. It should only be done once.

If you are still seeing the capital letters, it is for the reason I stated. You will have to find the part you missed in the installation.

Jack, I have re-done it 3 times and nothing changes, it is still the same. I also noticed that it make no difference if I enable or disable Links Manager II in module/boxes, it is still showes up on the site?

Placement is also stuck on the right side and will not move to the left either?

Please help me

Yes, that is correct. It is a 2.3 file. Are you sure you used the 2.3 install section in the contribution?

Hi Jack,

Yes I'm sure, I even deleted the 2.2 folder so I would not mix them up.

Could there have been any errors while running links_setup.php?

Also what is the links_db_update.php for?

There could have been errors with that but it wouldn't cause a problem like you are seeing. The update script is for updating the configuration options without destroying the ones that are already set. It is not needed unless the update instructions says to use it.

Jack, if I type in manually the correct url, http://www.koolkatjazz.com/catalog/*******/link_categories.php then it works and the page "Link Categories" shows up.

But if I click on the link in the program I get following url, http://www.koolkatjazz.com/catalog/********/FILENAME_LINKS_CATEGORIES and 404 Not Found

Hope this is of help

Cheers
