Blank Frontend

[nohare]

Hi there,

 

am new to oscommerce, have read all the help files and have been through the setup successfully (backend), the admin area works fine and i've got items listed in the new catagories... have looked at the database files and these also show the new info -

 

however -

 

I have no front end showing when the calalog/index.php loads... i just get a blank screen

 

when looking at it (edit local version) i can see all the code etc but the remote version loads white screen.

 

any ideas?

 

cheers

am not getting any error messages if that makes a difference too...

Check the text that you put into the 'TEXT_MAIN' variable in catalog/includes/languages/english/index.php

 

If there are any rogue apostrophes ('), then it causes this kind of error. If you need an apostrophe, comment it out by using a backslash (\) before it.

can't see any rogue ' 's to the best of my knowledge...

 

any other reasons why i'm not seeing anything in the calogue index page?

am i supposed to have been editing the php to include anything extra - or is there some setup options that i am missing???

 

Cheers!
