    Default Strange code appearing in product pages

    Hi All

    I have been working with Zen Cart a wee while now and have not have too many problems - and you have all been soooo helpful.

    Today, I have been working on putting pictures into my product page descriptions and when I used plain text to look at some of the pages I have already done using HTMLArea, I found this sort of code ...

    mcWkpXyhmMulkLpvMF9K5bDZXyOayyXIpVyykS8XsUrlQLhWWl/KlYnplObe8VKysllaWS5VyoVZdXV0p1murtcpyo7Zaq6406pW1ZrVarTYbjVOnas1G7WSjcXKt1mw0mo 1Kvdao11aa9VqjXqvXVuq1Wr1aadRra81Ko16r15bqtVqzUWs0VhqN2lqz1qjXGvXVem21WlmtVpaqq0 sry7mV5VxlpVStLDXq1bVm7d21tXdaH7JwH3QcCwCAy6696cZ7ntn64L6z92TtZKMSj4yY3Ta1I4ipfU yejkuoWYiIDqMsHs7CcA4CDyIoAwVBkVxppWZnfR6.....

    It goes on and on ....

    Now my questions ....

    What is it?
    How did it get there?
    Is it dangerous?
    What should I do about it?

    I don't know how many products are affected but it seems to be ones where I tried to insert a table and pictures into the text.

    Any help gratefully accepted.

    What version of zencart are you using? Where is the site hosted? Do you have a WordPress blog on the same server / URL ?

    Hi

    This is the code at the start of the lines and lines of gobbledegook code ...

    <tbody><tr><td><img src="data:image/png;base64

    And this at the end ...

    </td><td><div style="margin-left: 40px;"><br />

    Default Re: Strange code appearing in product pages - is it a hack attempt?

    Hi

    I tried to put a picture into a hidden table as part of the Product Description ...

    http://www.homeandgardencompany.co.u...roducts_id=814

    But it seems to be this which is causing the problem. When I tried to add two tables or two pictures, it erased anything in the second table or around the second picture.

    Would it be better if I were to create the HTML code for the product description, including the pics set into a table outside of Zen Cart and then copy it in?
