Yes!!!! Thanks that did the trick. Question, If I move my store to the root directory what would the rewrite base look like then just remove "/torostore/catalog/"? Thanks alot Devx

Wow thanks for the fast response. I checked with WS_FTP with all files showing and the only .htaccess file I have is the one in my catalog directory. I noticed also that when in the oscommerce, "www" is removed from my webaddress. Here is the last version of .htaccess file I was attempting to use. I copied it from a post in this thread. # $Id: .htaccess,v 1.3 2003/06/12 10:53:20 hpdl Exp $ # # This is used with Apache WebServers # # For this to work, you must include the parameter 'Options' to # the AllowOverride configuration # # Example: # # <Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs"> # AllowOverride Options # </Directory> # # 'All' with also work. (This configuration is in the # apache/conf/httpd.conf file) # The following makes adjustments to the SSL protocol for Internet # Explorer browsers <IfModule mod_setenvif.c> <IfDefine SSL> SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \ nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \ downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0 </IfDefine> </IfModule> # Fix certain PHP values # (commented out by default to prevent errors occuring on certain # servers) #<IfModule mod_php4.c> # php_value session.use_trans_sid 0 # php_value register_globals 1 #</IfModule> Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^(.*)-p-(.*).html$ product_info.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-c-(.*).html$ index.php?cPath=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-m-(.*).html$ index.php?manufacturers_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-pi-(.*).html$ popup_image.php?pID=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-t-(.*).html$ articles.php?tPath=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-a-(.*).html$ article_info.php?articles_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-pr-(.*).html$ product_reviews.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-pri-(.*).html$ product_reviews_info.php?products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} RewriteRule ^(.*)-i-(.*).html$ information.php?info_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} Thanks again

404 Error Problem I am having a similar problem as reported by several people on this thread. But I have not been able to find a solution. I have installed V2.1d and the dynamic HTML urls are generated but I get a 404 error when i click the link. example http://toronetworks.com/torostore/catalog/...-2002-p-28.html On other links like categories I get redirected to the root index page. I have a feeling these problems are all related to the .htaccess file. but have not been able to pinpoint them. I have checked to make sure its CHMOD 777 and have tried with "options +FollowSymLinks" removed. I never had .htaccess file in the catalog directory of if I did it wasnt showing and overwrote it mistakenly. My backed up version of my store however does not show .htaccess file and I assuming therefore there was none in the /catalog/ directory of my server My server is running FreeBSD Contributions I have installed: On The Fly Autothumbnails Main Catagories Quantity Price Breaks and Volume Pricing CoolMenus I am hoping someone can shed some light. Thank you

I think your missing this step. 2.) Replace the following line in your catalog/includes/column_left.php file: Find the following line include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'categories.php'); Replace it with this include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'coolmenu.php'); Hope thats it
