ok, due to unforseen difficulties I had to run the updater for the config files again....grrrrr, this then claimed I had to update the database too, which it has previously claimed and bersion in admin claimed it was already patched to 1.5.1
so I was a good girl---mark that down in history cause it won't happen for another millenia
then I had to reinstall each and every plugin again...files were there but none were acknowledged so I basically just had to do their admin auto installers...whew
the define page editor still will not acknowledge that the files have text in them...the main page is fine and behaves but still nothing from that darn checkout success or others. text appears in store but not in editor.
checked log folder and here is the error found in there:
[29-Dec-2013 20:06:43 America/New_York] PHP Warning: htmlspecialchars() [<a href='function.htmlspecialchars'>function.htmlspecialchars</a>]: Invalid multibyte sequence in argument in /adminfolder/define_pages_editor.php on line 188
this is the code for that section with lines in red:
<tr>
<td class="main"><b><?php echo TEXT_INFO_CAUTION . '<br /><br />' . TEXT_INFO_EDITING . '<br />' . $file . '<br />'; ?></b></td>
</tr>
<tr><?php echo zen_draw_form('language', FILENAME_DEFINE_PAGES_EDITOR, 'lngdir=' . $_SESSION['language'] . '&filename=' . $_GET['filename'] . '&action=save'); ?>
<td><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
<tr>
[B]<td class="main"><?php echo zen_draw_textarea_field('file_contents', 'soft', '100%', '30', htmlspecialchars($file_contents, ENT_COMPAT, CHARSET, TRUE), (($file_writeable) ? '' : 'readonly') . ' id="file_contents"'); ?></td>[/B]
</tr>
<tr>
<td><?php echo zen_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '1', '10'); ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right"><?php if ($file_writeable) { echo zen_image_submit('button_save.gif', IMAGE_SAVE) . ' <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFINE_PAGES_EDITOR, 'define_it=' .$_GET['define_it'] . '&action=new_page') . '">' . zen_image_button('button_reset.gif', IMAGE_RESET) . '</a>' . ' ' . '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFINE_PAGES_EDITOR . '.php') . '">' . zen_image_button('button_cancel.gif', IMAGE_CANCEL) . '</a>'; } else { echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFINE_PAGES_EDITOR, 'lngdir=' . $_SESSION['language']) . '">' . zen_image_button('button_back.gif', IMAGE_BACK) . '</a>'; } ?></td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</form></tr>
I even uploaded a fresh file from the installer files
