In creating the new site I of course started from a copy of the live db with a new files set and patched up the db. there are 143 entries in my product_type_layout.

Something else you might like to look at, at least I'd like some explaining on is...

INSERT INTO product_type_layout (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, product_type_id, sort_order, set_function, date_added) VALUES ('Show Model Number', 'SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MODEL', '1', 'Display Model Number on Product Info 0= off 1= on', '1', '1', 'zen_cfg_select_drop_down(array(array(\'id\'=>\'1\', \'text\'=>\'True\'), array(\'id\'=>\'0\', \'text\'=>\'False\')), ', now());

is the zen_cfg_select_drop_down missing a closing round brace? Looks like the values or the function are missing it's round brace, mysql complains when it is there though.

I notice the same code since at least 1.3.8 so it's either intentional or a seriously overlooked mistake. If it's a mistake though, how does the system function. If it's not a mistake, please explain how an uneven count of open and close () can work without breaking.

Thank You,
John
