admin -> categories.php

[blr044]

I was going through admin/categories.php and came upon this one line and am not sure if it is a mistake.

 

Line 377 thru 389:

                       'products_price' => '',
                      'products_cost' => '',
                      'products_weight' => '',
                      'products_date_added' => '',
                      'products_last_modified' => '',
                      'products_date_available' => '',
                      'products_status' => '',
                      'products_tax_class_id' => '',
                      'manufacturers_id' => '');

   $pInfo = new objectInfo($parameters);

  if (isset ($HTTP_GET_VARS['pID']) && (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) ) {

 

You will notice in the last line, there is an ! before $HTTP_POST_VARS

 

So I remove that or leave it there?

This has been changed in osCommerce 2.2 RC 2a. The "!" is a PHP NOT operator, and it has similarities to the PHP empty() function. So what it's checking for is if there are no POST variables.
