Error in Admin Orders

[Boschett]

Hello,

 

I need assistance with an error message I'm getting when I'm in my list of customers and I click on the order icon. I get this error.

Is there anyone out there that can help me?

 

Thanks,

Hi there,

 

I had a similar problem, which may or may not be the same.

It turned out to be non-text characters being used in the product title in the catalog. Apostrophes, inverted commas, any html etc., seemed to be causing errors in admin.

So my answer was to just use letters and numbers in the title.

 

i hope this helps.

Kenny,

 

Thanks so much. Can't believe that caused an issue. I had two words in my one and only product line and the space between the words was causing it.

Glad I could help.

 

It does seem a bit odd that the space between words should be causing the error.

I have around 1000 products on the site ww.drumcentral.co.uk, and since I spotted and corrected the problem with the apostrophes, I've had no other problems,

certainly not with using spaces between words. Maybe there's something else, like html or slashes / or <.
