question about v1.3.5 installation tool

[MrForce]

This is a repeatable [but not fatal] bug in V1.3.5:

When using Zen Cart Installer
Step - Database Setup
Form - Database Information
Field - Store Identifier (Table-Prefix)

The Store Identifier field does not show up initially on the Database Information form. Therefore, you cannot specify a db prefix (i.e. zen_).

Workaround:
Leave the form blank and click "Save Database Settings".
This will force an error return page and the Store Identifier field will now show up and function as expected.

I can't duplicate this ...

The "store identifier" field is only hidden for database-upgrades, not for fresh installs.

What browser are you using?

DrByte,

I'm running Firefox v1.5.0.6
I've encountered the hidden store identifier on two fresh installs (I'm currently in a more fatal debug loop - http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46120, thus the reloads).

If I need to run another fresh install, I'll switch to mozilla or ie to see if the problem tracks.

its gotta be something on your end, I have installed 20 1.3.5 fresh installs and have NOT seen your issue
and Im using firefox same as you

If neither of you gents have this problem, I agree it's gotta be on my side.
Thanks for investigating. I'll follow-up if I discover the root cause.

Regards,
