<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

George thanks for the quick reply.

I made the changes as you recommended & am still receiving the same reply from my browser. This is the index.php as it is now. Any thoughts? Tried putting in the \ in ('HEADING_TITLE', 'What\'s New Here?'); no help & when I bring it back up for edit the \ is not there. Lee

define('HEADING_TITLE', ('What's New Here?');

define('TABLE_HEADING_IMAGE', '');

define('TABLE_HEADING_MODEL', 'Model');

this;

should be written as:

and, once again, here:

} elseif ($category_depth == 'top') {

define('HEADING_TITLE','What's New Here?');

this

define('HEADING_TITLE','What's New Here?');

should be:

define('HEADING_TITLE','What\'s New Here?');

If you are using the file editor built into osCommerce, don't. It has known problems. Use a good html/text editor (free if you search for them) or notepad and ftp the files you change back to your server.
