Strange Error on Index Page

[Guest]

I was editing the text in my english.php and am now getting this error on my homepage:

 

Warning: sprintf(): Too few arguments in /home/craftyg/public_html/includes/functions/general.php on line 940

 

I have not even touched the file specified in the error. Any idea what this is all about?

 

I appreciate any help! Feeling a little desperate.

Here is the code that I was editing:

 

define('TEXT_GREETING_GUEST', '<b>Welcome!<br><tr><td width="100%"><div align="center"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="10" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#66cc66" width="1%" id="AutoNumber2" align="center"><tr><td width="35%"><p align="center"><border="0" src="images/smalla.jpg" width="100" height="100"><br><b><font size="1" face="Verdana"></a></td><td width="30%"><p align="center"><img border="0" src="images/smallb.jpg" width="100" height="100"><br><b><font face="Verdana" size="1"></a></td><td width="35%"><p align="center"><img border="0" src="images/smallc.jpg"width="100" height="100"><br><b><font face="Verdana" size="1"></td></tr></table></div></td><font color="000000"><br>

[Guest]

change this

[Guest]

Changing that gave me this error:

well ok, probably you have other problems. Goto your catalog\includes\functions\general.php backup the file then,

 

locate this

$greeting_string = sprintf(TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL, tep_output_string_protected($customer_first_name), tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_NEW));

 

change it to this

$greeting_string = TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL;

 

couple of lines further down find this:

$greeting_string = sprintf(TEXT_GREETING_GUEST, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'), tep_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'));

 

change it to this

$greeting_string = TEXT_GREETING_PERSONAL;

 

 

of course if your english.php is missing is a totally different issue.

On the assumption that you meant to say, on the second edit, TEXT_GREETING_GUEST; ...

 

problem solved! Thanks so much.
