Hi All,

I am trying to make a simple change to a text in a file succsess.php in the file manager.
When I click on save I can see that the browser is waiting for a reply for my website but doesn't get any and the changed file is not saved.
Do you have any idea? may be it's related to my hosting company (Godaddy) or some other settings of the read write permission of the files.
please help.

Thank you.

The file manager in oscommerce is a known security hole and should not be used (should not even be present). It might be that godaddyy is blocking it for that reason. You could use the control panels file manager and that should work. If not, you should contact godaddy and ask why it doesn't.
