unfortunately this did not make a difference, i am running this osc on godaddy by the way and they install it etc for me. i dont know what else i've done wrong but if i click on the add to cart button i also get the following error:
Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/content/u/k/h/ukhome06/html/ukshop/catalog/includes/application_top.php:1) in /home/content/u/k/h/ukhome06/html/ukshop/catalog/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 97
