    Default phpBB intergration PROBLEM!

    We are trying to integrate the phpBB forum with the zen cart and all seems to have gone ok, yet the forum link in the information sidebox is missing a forward slash (/) in the file name.
    We've checked all the files that contain the text for the path and each instance has the slash present.
    Has anybody else stumbled upon this problem and if so, how do you fix it?

    Thanks in advance

    The URL is built based on a parsing of:
    - absolute path to the forum folder
    - absolute path to store folder
    - webserver's report of DOCUMENT_ROOT, PHP_SELF, SCRIPT_FILENAME
    - and merging all these together

    It seems your webserver is reporting things oddly.

    The simplest approach for you would be to make some hard-coded edits to your
    includes/modules/sideboxes/YOURTEMPLATE/information.php
    around line 29 you'll see:
    PHP Code:
        $information[] = '<a href="' zen_href_link($phpBB->phpBB['phpbb_url'] . FILENAME_BB_INDEX'''NONSSL'''''truefalse) . '" target="_blank">' BOX_BBINDEX '</a>'
    You could change that to a hard-coded URL something like this:
    PHP Code:
        $information[] = '<a href="http://mysite.com/forum/index.php" target="_blank">' BOX_BBINDEX '</a>'
    .
