When I searched for this contribution it did not come up under any of the searches but then with a Google search it came up. I believe it is because it is not title correctly but I digress.

 

This is a great contribution that allows users to filter the Latest Products and Product Specials by Category via a dropdown box. Many a customers have mentioned having to scroll through hundreds of products before finding what they wanted within these two pages so this contribution solves that. If the customer knows the category it will only show new or products on special for that category they chose.

 

Well this is a great concept except it is not working with osCommerce 2.2 MS2. I'm not a php or MySQL guru but I believe the database calls are not working.

 

See the contribution here: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5785

Here's a live site with the drop down not working properly: http://www.jehovanisi.com/products_new.php

 

Could you guys take a look at the code for products_new and let me know why the database is not connecting correctly?
