I think it is a server problem. This is the error I get: Invalid access to memory location. I get that error at the following locations: http://purchases.futuretouch.co.uk/ http://futuretouch.co.uk/purchases/ http://purchases.futuretouch.co.uk/index.php http://futuretouch.co.uk/purchases/index.php However, as you have mentioned, other files in the directory may be accessed, like this one: http://purchases.futuretouch.co.uk/images/logos/ccLogo.gif

It is true that CubeCart is not so win-server friendly. You can use CubeCart on Windows server, but it has not been uncommon to have to work out issues when doing so. I can't really help you with that, but would like to encourage anyone who has a choice in servers not to use windows servers Note ~ my comments are not sponsored by CubeCart, just another forum member stating an opinion here

you are welcome :)

Good stuff, convict Can't wait to use this myself.

Wow, I had not followed this thread, I'm glad it popped up again. Alot of interesting reading here. As I am the skin developer, I would like to say that I prefer to code fixed width skins. I think that dev-student's critiques are a little long-winded and overwrouhgt (sorry, just my opinion ) but he has made valid points about fixed width skins and I entirely agree. Having said that, there is also this: Many people prefer liquid width sites, and they won't be deterred from that preference. It is very difficult for any web designer to create a liquid width layout that is 1) xhtml valid, 2) relies on CSS and not tables, 3) looks FABULOUS in every possible screen resolution that people can come up with. In this, Alan is correct, most designers stay away fromm liquid width because of these difficulties. Thanks for all the comments on Alan's store, both Alan and I appreciate the feedback and we are working to improve it even more :D

Robsta, Vrakas, thank you for the comments :)

I use a helpdesk mod for the contact us, and prior to that I used a nice contact form mod. For the terms and conditions, I used some text that was offered freely on the web, then I added to it and edited it accordingly. You are welcome to take any of the text from my terms and conditions page and use as it suits you. I can't give a link to the site here, so if you want a link please ask via PM or check my profile.

Hi Dazza, your site is looking very interesting! Well your link goes to a viewCat page, then clicking on a thumb takes you to a viewProd page. I *think* that you are asking, why can't you get the "product list thumbnails" at the bottom to show on the viewProd page, is this correct? The reason is that you are missing the proper background code for that list in includes/content/viewProd.inc.php You will have to mod that file as well as the template file in order for this to work.

You guys are misunderstanding what I meant by "leave the </a> in place" I gave two different solutions here, they work separately not together. 1. Move the closing anchor tag </a> to the end of the line, this will make the number part of the link and it will be styled just as the cat name because it is now part of the link, because you moved the </a> 2. If you want it to be a different independent color, DO NOT move the </a> tagt. Leave it as it is originally in the file. Instead, use the span code I gave in my post above, and replace the word red with a color name or number of your choosing. Note that all color names do not work, only some, it is best to use a number like #454545;

yes - and you're doing a damned good job of guessing the period . concatenates your variable $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] to the text string you need to type in, and since it is text string it gets the quote mark, so ." after the variable is beautiful. The other quote marks are escaped \" as they should be. Great job, and I am thrilled you figured it all out :D

If you're a coder, the place to do this will be in classes/db.inc.php where the pagination function is defined and the navigation is coded. I haven't tried this, but I went in recently and added some text links for the pagination at this site: http://www.justwhat-iwant.co.uk/ BTW, the installation forum is not the place for these type discussions, try the skins forum si9nce this is a front-end function tweak :(

There is no date set for release. He is writing about the next major revision of CubeCart, version 3.1.0 which will be a signicicantly different software.

When you change file permissions through an ftp client, for example, using your ftp software you change from 644 to 777, after it is done you should always usethe refresh in your ftp program and check again. Then go to store and edit file. As to all the exttra slashes in fckeditor files, see the pinned post, it is mentioned near the end of the list.

Great job of integrating CC with your site template! Also a few nice touches in CSS that you don't see often, which I appreciate, like a judicious use of text-decoration: overline; The template doesn't look much like e-commerce, but it has been integrated beautifully. Keep up the good work.

You're asking advice in a thread that is a year old The openbase_dir restriction error is due to server settings. Contact your host about this problem. If your host cannot tweak the settings for your cart to work, finding a better host may be your best solution.

The styles for that text are controlled by the .txtSession class in styles.css

Hi Chris, welcome to the forum. It is against the rules to place a link here to any provider of unofficial, third-party CubeCart items like skins. As to your question, the only copyrights that your customers see on CubeCart are the copyright notice at bottom regarding CubeCart and Devellion, LTd., and the "Powered by CubeCart" that appears in browser adress bar. When you purchase the copyright removal code thesde are removed regardless of the skin you use. On the other hand, if some third party provider offers a free skin and states that in order to use their free skin that you must leave their own notice intact on their skin, that is an entirely separate matter. Custom skins by third parties are not supported by Devellion and the official CubeCart site and forums, for questions about them you should contact the makers.

sorry, you are not the firsst, sorry it is not easy to spot the solution. More details: You need to download the tool named CubeCart Config Tool (editconf.php) and follow the instructions. You will indeed find it in the downloads, see button above. edit >> https://www.cubecart.com/site/helpdesk/inde...d=9&nav=0,5

Here is a hack, or mod if you will. Be sure to SAVE and RENAME original files, in other words back up your files before editing them. No one but you are responsible for the changes you make to your files here OPEN includes/content/viewCat.inc.php FIND about line 82: $view_cat->assign("IMG_CATEGORY",$GLOBALS['rootRel']."images/uploads/".$subCategories[$i]['cat_image']); PASTE this line below it: $view_cat->assign("THUMB_CATEGORY",$GLOBALS['rootRel']."images/uploads/thumbs/thumb_".$subCategories[$i]['cat_image']); SAVE and UPLOAD that file to your store. Now, OPEN skins/xx/styleTemplates/content/viewCat.tpl FIND this line of code: <a href="index.php?act=viewCat&amp;catId={TXT_LINK_CATID}" class="txtDefault"><img src="{IMG_CATEGORY}" alt="{TXT_CATEGORY}" border="0" title="{TXT_CATEGORY}" /></a><br /> CHANGE to this line: <a href="index.php?act=viewCat&amp;catId={TXT_LINK_CATID}" class="txtDefault"><img src="{THUMB_CATEGORY}" alt="{TXT_CATEGORY}" border="0" title="{TXT_CATEGORY}" /></a><br />

there is a tool in the downloads area, see tab above - check the pinned posts - use the search function

Mysty, there may be more than one problem there. For the first problem, look for the place that this text is generated and place a <br clear="all" /> just above it: Usually Ships in 5-10 days

favicons are GOOD not BAD, they can aid in branding and when a visitor browses with tabs they can identify your tab. It is the constant motion that is extremely annoying. Try a static favicon, or one that moves for a few seconds then is forever still until reloaded. I put one like that on this site, and no one has complained about it at all. The constant motion is distracting to me, that's what you should consider doing away with :)

Beautiful work, Kyle. I love it :D

Yes, I did the design and graphics and the coding for CubeCart integration, but the inspiration came from my customer who wanted it to look and perform similar to another site. Some of the small images were taken from actual product photos, others are purchased and public domain icons art. edit: I wrote above that I had done the graphics, but I forgot to mention that forum member Robsta made the banner graphic, "Spring is in the Air" - special thanks to Robsta for doing that
