Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Since there are multiple files using the same names, could you put the intended path in the header information? Most of your users wear a number of hats. With a few exceptions ... "programmer" isn't one of them. Having the path information in the header would save us much grief by helping identify which of two same-name files were are editing.

Bill, that is a nice idea, but TBH the question should never even come up ... you should never edit files online. Instead, you should be working on your local 1:1 copy of your site, with a good editor like textpad. Textpad has a file list on the left side which will show you the full path at all times. Same name files exist in admin/catalog, and also each root file in admin AND catalog have their own language files. I'm sure you can distinguish between a php page and a language file which only holds text defines, so that should be a nobrainer. For all other cases, see above. :-) Monika addicted to writing code ... can't get enough of databases either, LOL! my toolbox: Textpad - Compare and Merge - phpMyAdmin - WS_FTP - Photoshop - How to search the forum Interactive Media Award July 2007 ~ category E-Commerce my advice on the forum is for free, PMs where you send me work are considered consultation which I charge for ...
