T,
The header.php is the wrong file to edit
ftp the orginal file over
Please read the following to change your problem:

Header Tab Changes:
A. Change Header Tab Wording
1. includes/ languages/ english/ meta_tag.php
2. Line 11 & 14 need to be edited
3. ftp to: includes/ languages/ english/ override folder/ meta_tag.php

i must have really goofed things up because i still can't seem to repair this simple thing.

Show us your header.php page code.

*/

// header text in includes/header.php
define('HEADER_TITLE_CREATE_ACCOUNT', 'Create Account');
define('HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT', 'My Account');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS', 'Shopping Cart');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT', 'Checkout');
define('HEADER_TITLE_TOP', 'Top');
define('HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG', 'Home');
define('HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF', 'Log Out');
define('HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN', 'Log In');

// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Powered by Zen Cart :: The Art of E-Commerce');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '192px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '64px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.gif');

// header Search Button/Box Search Button
define('HEADER_SEARCH_BUTTON','Search');
define('HEADER_SEARCH_DEFAULT_TEXT', 'Enter search keywords here');

?>

when using the developer's kit to find the title it gives me this result:

/home/tea5ara/public_html/shop/includes/modules/meta_tags.php

Line #100 : define('META_TAG_TITLE', (HOME_PAGE_TITLE != '' ? HOME_PAGE_TITLE : (defined('NAVBAR_TITLE') ? NAVBAR_TITLE . PRIMARY_SECTION : '') . TITLE . TAGLINE));

however, i do not see a line 100 in the meta_taps.php file.

T,
Please post this file for me..

includes/ languages/ english/ meta_tags.php

1. use [PHP] in front and the closing tag for this when posting..
2. easier to read

Are you still using the classic template???????????????

& yes, i believe i'm using classic.

T,

Try this:

1. // Site Tagline
   define('SITE_TAGLINE', '');
2. change to this:
3. // Site Tagline
   define('SITE_TAGLINE', '!');

that didn't fix it. i'm assuming i changed something somewhere i shouldn't have. is there any other resolution you can see? it seems like an obvious mistake/change but it's really got me stumped.

should the metatags.php file be here: /www/shop/includes/modules ?

the developer's tool kit is telling me that's where the problem is.
