something gone awry in left side sideboxes...

Greetings Zenners...
A strange thing has happened, and I don't know what's broken.
My left side sideboxes (except for the google adsence) all have 'more' links on the top, and they all take you to more new products (the top box in the column, which is correct).

Obviously, something's gone a little screwy in the code (CSS?), but it's beyond my limited ability to troubleshoot.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Additional info - this only happens if the New products sidebox is above the others... it disappears if I drop it below the other sideboxes...

wierd... my guess is something in that sidebox code? Happens with both New Products and Featured, but only on the left column.....

Re: something gone awry in left side sideboxes...

in your whats-new sidebox module, you have this:```
$title = BOX_HEADING_WHATS_NEW;
$title_link = FILENAME_PRODUCTS_NEW;


Whoever built your other sideboxes must not have reset that, so therefore the boxes "after" the whats-new will be using the same link.
You need to use this in the sidebox module to cause the links not to show:```
    $title_link = false;

ok... thanks!
Seems like I'll be chunking around some code in the next few hours/days to get that fixed....
