Default Dynamic MOPix and Search engine safe URLs

Hi.
I was generally pleased with the search engine safe url option in OSCommerce.

However, Dynamic MOPics seem to be having issues with the further images.

Although the thumbs show up, the large images all contain the default product image! Once the SE safe URL is turned off, it's fine!

Has anybody found a solution for this problem?

Also, IE spews up an ERROR at the bottom left of the status bar, which vanishes once SESafe URL is turned off!

this is the email i received from the author;

yes this is a known problem with osCommerce's SE safe URLS. They
aren't fully developed. The fix is to open the popup_image.php and
replace all $_GET with $HTTP_GET_VARS . That will solve the problem.

the file the author is on about is found in catalog\templates\content.
surely enough, this fixes the problem.
however, i still get the yellow ERROR symbol in the bottom left of the IE window (on every oage).
dunno if this has anything to do with mopix.

Hi,

I've been using Dynamic MoPics for a while but I still having problems, I performed all the suggested changes (replacing _GET for HTTP_GET_VARS), and I even experimented with adding the extension _big and removing it,
the fact is when it enlarges a picture other than the default it didn't use the one in images_big, it uses a small thumbnail...

I'm using search engine friendly URLs it's imperative due to changes on search engine algorithms, to rank better.

Thank you,

icecold, a smart thing to do would be to turn of SE safe URLs, get mopics working, then enable the SE safe urls, and fix any problems. That way you can work at one problem at a time...
