includes/languages/english.php

 

define('BOX_HEADING_MANUFACTURERS', 'Manufacturers');

 

Download the file and edit in a plain text editor and upload again. Backup the file before editing. Don't ever use the osCommerce File Manager to edit files.

thank you so much, just out of curiosity, why not use oscom file mang to edit ?

The File Manager uses a php command called 'strip slashes', and that's just what it does when you save an edited file. Backslashes in front of apostrophies are necessary to prevent parse errors in text within php. So, if you put some text in like "We\'re having a great big sale today!", when you save it using File Manager it'll be saved as "We're having a great big sale today!".

 

Also the very presence of the file admin/file_manager.php is a security threat - a possible backdoor into your site for hackers. Depends really upon the level of security on the server itself. Best advice, delete it, or rename it if that concerns you.

Would you highly recommend deleting file_manager.php? Getting rid of it won't break anything, will it?

It will stop you from using it for certain. It will also remove a possible exploit from osCommerce, which could be used on an insecure php installation to gain access to your site and do nasty things to it.

 

But, as I said, if it concerns you, just rename it to something else. This will stop you using it, and stop a hacker finding it (in all likelyhood), and if you want to reuse it at some time you can just rename it back to the original.
