    Default Google Froogle 'too few tabs' problem

    Hi,

    I've been using the excellent Google froogle contrib without a problem for the past few months. However, I carried out an update yesterday and noticed that all my items have disappeared from Froogle. I've logged in and the feed has not been approved = the error for all lines is 'too few tabs'. I've checked my feed and it looks ok the headings are 'title description link price image_link expiration_date label id' and when I view the feed in Excel the columns match the headings.

    Anyone got any idea on why this has suddenly stopped working and how I can fix it?

    Thanks a lot,
    Q

    condition
    description
    expiration_date
    id
    image_link

    title

    + many others you specify and custom attributes.
    See the required Attributes on there web site below:-

    The 'Too few tabs' error means that you have blank fields in the last line of your feed.

    You need to rearrange the feed sequence in googlefroogle.php such that the last column in the feed always has a value - eg. 'Price'.
