Question before i pull my hair out.

O.K. I have the DESFU mod and all is ok and is not the issue, except for one thing. The breadcrumb on the home page displays the company name and unfortunatly links to home.php, which i for the life of me cannot find to change. Ive played with the location.tpl file and the home.tpl, well just about them all really, but nothing !

All the other home links that i can find used <A href="{$http_location}/"> instead of home.php. The .htaccess files have also been updated so this is for better house keping to coin a phrase - but a real pain in the butt !!!


Can someone help me out here again.

Why not just <a href="/">Home</a> ?

PS - here's my location.tpl -- modified for CDSEO:

 {if $location}
{* {strip} *}
<font class="NavigationPath">
   <a href="/">Home</a>&nbsp;&rarr;&nbsp;
   {section name=position loop=$location start=1}
     {if $location[position].1 ne "" }<a href="{$location[position].1|amp}">{/if}
     {$location[position].0}
     {if $location[position].1 ne "" }</a>{/if}
     {if not %position.last%}&nbsp;&rarr;&nbsp;{/if}
   {/section}
</font>
{* {/strip} *}
{/if}

Don't forget to replace <font with <span as <font> is a depreciated tag.

Very interesting... yes, you're right. FYI, the "<font" tag is right out of 4.1.6 stock install (/skin1_original/location.tpl)

So much for 4.1.x being xhtml compliant.

Yes exactly which probally answers the question to my problems.

Interesting though what balinor has said, can i ask where he got this info from, as it is from 4.1.6 so it could have not been from there.

Not really a bug, but i bet there are plenty more where that can from ?

[balinor]

Where I got that from....the W3C Standards can be found here:

Hi balinor

Maybe someone should pass it down the line a little, as i am sure its not hard for x-cart to apply an upgrade to.


Thanks anyhow

It isn't just X-Cart who isn't following this standard, look at 99% of the third-party add-ons and you will find lousy code as well. Most developers simply don't care to follow these standards.
