Hey guys, woke up and noticed that I was getting a similar error to this below in the admin backend. This was based on the amazon checkout, I went ahead and removed the amazon checkout and was left with the following on my checkout.php...


Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in ...public_html/googlecheckout/gcheckout.php on line 127

What is this error? Anyone know how we can fix this? Please help thank you.

read about a few places saying the following:



$resticted_categories = split('([ ]?[,][ ]?)',MODULE_PAYMENT_GOOGLECHECKOUT_RESTRICTED_CATEGORIES);

make to this -----

$resticted_categories = preg_split('/ ?, ?/',
MODULE_PAYMENT_GOOGLECHECKOUT_RESTRICTED_CATEGORIES);


I have fixed it to this and it seems to be working...what do you guys think?

Yeah, that looks OK. This assumes either 0 or 1 blank on either side of the comma. Consider changing ? to * to catch "0 or more" blanks.

Your host upgraded to PHP 5.3 and you still had some code with deprecated functions in it. Read about it on http://us.php.net/manual/en/migration53.deprecated.php . Is the Amazon Checkout not PHP 5.3-compatible? If so, you can probably fix it up.

@MrPhil thank you, will look into it.. Yes, I already removed the Amazon checkout because my site was live and it was showing errors.

@MrPhil So I am trying to reinstall the amazon checkout and I get a few deprecated errors, it is the following:

I did some reading and I guess just removing the "&" after the = sign will allow for the PHP to read it correct, I went ahead and did it to all and the module is working fine... fixed? maybe what you guys think?

[MrPhil]

How long ago did you obtain this Amazon code? PHP 5.3 has been out long enough that I would think that Amazon (or whoever the author is) has updated their code by now. You might want to see if there is an upgraded version of the add-on you could use. Remove the old add-on and replace it with the new (after making a backup just in case...).

I have no idea if your edit is correct, but it sounds plausible. It seems to work correctly after making that change?
