Please Help....Change Browser text?

emailanj · August 12, 2005

I hope I explain this right....I had no search results when I tried to search this on the form.

What I would like to do is change the Browser text from OScommerce to my own name. (the place where if you were to - out the browser you can still see the window title, Blind people use this etc.)

I am using some files from a free temlate I found on the web so its different than the original. And I have looked every where.

I have looked at my Source Code and this is the only place I have seen it referanced It looks like this:

<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<head>

<title>osCommerce</title>

</head>

<tr>

The Place I am thinking it should be catolog/includes/header.php, Its not that I can see here is the code

[/code]

<?php

/*

$Id: header.php,v 1.42 2003/06/10 18:20:38 hpdl Exp $

// check if the 'install' directory exists, and warn of its existence

if (WARN_INSTALL_EXISTENCE == 'true') {

if (file_exists(dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_FILENAME']) . '/install')) {

$messageStack->add('header', WARNING_INSTALL_DIRECTORY_EXISTS, 'warning');

}

// check if the configure.php file is writeable

if (WARN_CONFIG_WRITEABLE == 'true') {

if ( (file_exists(dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_FILENAME']) . '/includes/configure.php')) && (is_writeable(dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SCRIPT_FILENAME']) . '/includes/configure.php')) ) {

$messageStack->add('header', WARNING_CONFIG_FILE_WRITEABLE, 'warning');

}

if (WARN_SESSION_DIRECTORY_NOT_WRITEABLE == 'true') {

if (STORE_SESSIONS == '') {

if (!is_dir(tep_session_save_path())) {

$messageStack->add('header', WARNING_SESSION_DIRECTORY_NON_EXISTENT, 'warning');

} elseif (!is_writeable(tep_session_save_path())) {

$messageStack->add('header', WARNING_SESSION_DIRECTORY_NOT_WRITEABLE, 'warning');

}

// check session.auto_start is disabled

$messageStack->add('header', WARNING_SESSION_AUTO_START, 'warning');

}

if ($messageStack->size('header') > 0) {

echo $messageStack->output('header');

}

Please any thoughts?

emailanj · August 12, 2005

So.....Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts? Is there more than one place I can look for this? I have looked around but can't seem to find anything...Or is it just in the catolog/includes/header.php? Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for any reply,

anj

you will have to modify every .php file with your own title

this is vertually every file in the root folder of your store for example

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>"> 
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="pc game, shop, educational toy, toy, console game, ink cartridge, printer ink, nursery, cheap, pc accessories, pc, xbox, ps2, ps1, playstation, computer, wholesale, dropshiper, hardware">
<META NAME="description" CONTENT="the one stop shop for all your needs">
<META NAME="revisit-after" CONTENT="7 days">
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="FOLLOW,INDEX">
<title>KAPBargins your bargin basement store with quality products</title>

emailanj · August 12, 2005

Thank you so very much for your response..

I am a little confused....Do I add this to each page? I looked at quite a few of the PHP files and did not see where to motify. Sorry I am new.

Thanks again for giving me direction!

Anj, to change the "osCommerce" text that shows up you'll have to go to each page and change what's between the <title> and </title> tags, right where you highlighted in blue in your post. If you change this to <title>mywebsite.com</title> then "mywebsite.com" will come up in the browser's title bar. Hope this helps! :thumbsup:

Ignore all those previous posts .. you do NOT have to edit every file.

Go to includes/language/english.php .. find this line near the top

define('TITLE', 'osCommerce');

and change it to your name .. make sure to keep the ' ' on either side of the name.

:rolleyes:

It didn't work because probably the administrator edit tool makes some error. i opened the file with text editor, changed it and then uploaded the new file and it worked !

Thanx !!!!

Please Help....Change Browser text?
