    help question Broken preview link

    I've been slowly adding products for some time but, now, the preview button seems to link to the top level directory and not to the preview page.

    The page code says it should link to here: "http://www.kidmonster.co.uk/catalog/admin/categories.php?cPath=75&pID=235&page=1"

    I'm guessing there is a problem with the database as I have reinstalled the categories.php file to no effect, but I haven't the faintest idea how to fix it. Any ideas?

    If it's any use, I'm running Zen cart version 1.3.7. MySQL client version: 4.1.10

    Apologies, but further investigation reveals that this problem only occurs when trying to amend existing products and not, as previuosly stated, when adding new products.

    Which "preview" button are you referring to? on the categories/prods listing or in the edit page ?
    Have you made any changes to the /admin/includes/modules files/folders ?
    What mods / addons / contributions do you have installed?

    I'm talking about the preview button(s) on the edit product page.
    I have made no changes to the admin/includes modules files/folders.
    As for mods etc, I have the Product Info Display (right side), Zen lightbox, blank sidebox and the Login header mods etc installed.

    Using phpMyAdmin ...

    Could you peek in the products table ...

    Do all products have master_categories_id values -- as in none are 0?

    Can you peek in the products_to_categories table ... do all products have categories_id > 0?

    Are you able to edit an existing product and click update?

    I've checked both the master_categories_id values and the products_to_categories table and both are fine (ie no 0s anywhere).

    Assuming you are asking whether I can edit a product using phpMyAdmin, the answer is yes.

    I have narrowed the errors still further. It only occurs when I change the text style in the Product description window - eg to a Heading style. It appears to be fine changing the point size, using bold etc. Just this. Know where I should look?
    Apologies for the inaccuracy of my earlier posts but I've been at this for hours.
