Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Your source shows the word "blank" added after each list item in the topMenuBar. Use the Developers Toolkit to find where that's been added.

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Thanks for the responses. I changed the color to a red so that you can see the "blank" "blank" "blank" "blank". I deleted all the EZ pages and the words disappeared. I added the EZ Pages back in and they reappeared. Any thoughts on how to delete? I see the word "delete" in the source code, but don't know which file to alter. I am assuming, I could just delete it from the file, if I knew where it was.

Sorry, I should have written I see the words "blank" in the source but don't know where to delete them. When I use the Web Developer, it won't let me click on the word "blank" to see where it comes from. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Thanks for telling where the Developers Kit is located. I typed the word "blank" in each empty box, but it didn't give me any results in any of the boxes. Any thoughts?

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Could it be that target="_blank" is being called or defined wrong?

Did you select "all catalog file" from the drop box??

Enter only in the last/bottom entry - - select from drop all catalog files

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Thanks for all your help. When I type "blank" in the bottom search box, I get 6 references to "blank".

The all point back to the same line, but in 6 different files. Here is one example:

/home2/mountai2/public_html/southerngenealogybooks/admin/includes/languages/english/categories.php

Line #34 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MORE_INFORMATION', 'For more information, please visit this products <a href="http://%s" target="blank">webpage</a>.');

Do I need to change it to "_blank" in each reference?

Thanks for all your help! I am very, very new to all this!!!

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Line #34 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MORE_INFORMATION', 'For more information, please visit this products <a href="http://%s" target="blank">webpage</a>.');should be> Line #34 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MORE_INFORMATION', 'For more information, please visit this products <a href="http://%s target="_blank">webpage</a>.');Note that I took out the extra " in the link reference as well.

BUT....you might want to consider> Line #34 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MORE_INFORMATION', 'For more information, please visit this products <a href="http://%s">webpage</a>.');so that you don't loose a cart going to a new window. Shouldn't happen, but Murphy was an optimist.:P

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Thank you for all the replies. I changed the code in all 6 files (categories, document_general, document_product, product, product_free_shipping, product_music) to read:

Line #34 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MORE_INFORMATION', 'For more information, please visit this products <a href="http://%s">webpage</a>.');

I then did the search in Developers Tool Kit for "blank" and nothing shows. However, the "blank" "blank" "blank" "blank" is still showing in EZ Page bar. Any thoughts?

Re: Blank Blank Blank Showing Up in Header

Alright, I finally figured it out!!! The word "blank" was in my EZ pages configuration. Sorry for all the trouble, but at least I learned about the Developers Tool Kit in the process.
