I have had a couple of reports about this, and it looks like it is the newest verision of IE that is causing the trouble. I am looking into a fix for this, but try using another browser, like netscape or opera.

This is only a problem on specific versions if IE, what is the version you are using? I am trying to compile data on this.

A couple of contribs you may be interested in adding: The "User Tracking with Admin 1.35" and "visitors_v1.6c". And if you can get Autologon working, fantastic, I know of no-one to successfully get this working because of various cookie probs. If you want me to do the updates and send you back the revised download, I'm happy as I'm gonna add these to my setup anyway.

Let me know, I will check forum tommorow

Thanks,

Excellent work by the way! bet it took ages to get those working, I've taken all afternoon to install half a dozen of the contribs!

Those 2 mods are already on the list If you want to do it, go ahead, and just send me a zip of the modded files. You can attach them to a post here on the board.

I've installed the contribs to the base install. However I could make much sense of your last post, despite looking at it a couple of times, no offense . It seemed to say that you already had those contribs installed. However, they were not, I'm almost ready to send back the updated zip with the mods, just wanna remove my db password/settings, then its all done!

Thanks for all that hard work again!

Sorry,

I meant they are on the list to be included in the next release, but they had not been installed yet.

When you upload a zip of your changes, just send the changed files, not the entire zip. Thanks

sorry... im new to oscommerce and php.. is there a possibility of being able to upgrade my new install of oscommerce with the mx2 max pack?

Thanks!

MS2-MAX is a FULL installation of osCommerce, so it would completely replace your existing store. It changes how files are structured, and where you edit the look.

It moves the formatting to a templates dir.

This will undo all the cosmetic changes you have made. My recommendation is to make a separate install of MS2-MAX and update it from there.
