Sorry, it was hard to tell in the message and that host wasn't us. Try hotscripts.com, google or you may have to write it. Google gave a number of things that may work but I am unfamiliar with what you are doing to be certain.

Last check it was 50 per 5 minutes.

They are in the table under the parent of 30

So I am looking at the table for categories and it looks like the number was given to each category/sub as they were uploaded to the database. So for example pocket tools was given a number of 30 and swords was given a number of 33. I have 2 subs under pocket tools there are 2 subs and they have numbers 31 and 32. I am wondering if that is what may be happening.

vendlus, Thanks for the info, I will look into it. I know there are about a dozen others with the same issue though. I will see what the tables are showing. Thanks,

Absolutely not, this post has been up the entire time. The servers here rock as well.

Tracy, Dont feel like you are rushing me. Like I said, I am lazy so that = slow in my book. I think I am going to have to contact customer support for linkpoint to see what is happening though.

To those more PHP inclined, I am running osCommerce with a tabbed navigation contribution. If you go to my website and click on the Knives tab you will see sub categories. Check any other tab and there is nothing. I did a search on the forums for osc and the maker hasn't done anything in some time. I am wondering if anyone can look at the code , it is one page and see if I am missing something in getting it to work. Here are the parts pertaining to the sub-categories; ><?php function show_subcategories($counter) { global $fooa, $subcategories_string, $id, $HTTP_GET_VARS; $cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $fooa[$counter]['path']; $subcategories_string .= '<a href="'; $subcategories_string .= tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $cPath_new); $subcategories_string .= '" class="headerNavigation">'; // display category name $subcategories_string .= $fooa[$counter]['name']; $subcategories_string .= '</a> '; if ($fooa[$counter]['next_id']) { $subcategories_string .= '| '; show_subcategories($fooa[$counter]['next_id']); }else{ $subcategories_string .= ' '; } } ?> And ><!-- subcategories //--> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" WIDTH="100%"> <tr class="headerNavigation"><td ALIGN="CENTER" class="headerNavigation"> <?php if ($cPath) { $subcategories_string = ''; $new_path = ''; $id = split('_', $cPath); reset($id); while (list($key, $value) = each($id)) { unset($prev_id); unset($first_id); $subcategories_query = tep_db_query("select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd where c.parent_id = '" . $value . "' and c.categories_id = cd.categories_id and cd.language_id='" . $languages_id ."' order by sort_order, cd.categories_name"); $subcategory_check = tep_db_num_rows($subcategories_query); if ($subcategory_check > 0) { $new_path .= $value; while ($row = tep_db_fetch_array($subcategories_query)) { $fooa[$row['categories_id']] = array( 'name' => $row['categories_name'], 'parent' => $row['parent_id'], 'level' => $key+1, 'path' => $new_path . '_' . $row['categories_id'], 'next_id' => false ); if (isset($prev_id)) { $fooa[$prev_id]['next_id'] = $row['categories_id']; } $prev_id = $row['categories_id']; if (!isset($first_id)) { $first_id = $row['categories_id']; } $last_id = $row['categories_id']; } $fooa[$last_id]['next_id'] = $fooa[$value]['next_id']; $fooa[$value]['next_id'] = $first_id; $new_path .= '_'; } else { break; } } } if ($id[0][0] != ''){ show_subcategories($id[0][0]); echo $subcategories_string; }else{ echo " "; } ?> </td> </tr> </table> <!-- subcategories_eof //--> If needed I can provide all of the code should anyone need to see the whole thing in context. I don't know PHP well enough to debug this. Any help would be appreciated.

Me too I hate it when that happens. Like the post office isnt fast enough as it is, they also get the most days off.

As long as it is a paid holiday it is fine with me.

Tracy, I put somewhat because it was easier to cut and paste your word than type my own. I am lazy, I'm a guy remember. I need to get the code working like it should be and some processes under my belt and then I can give you an honest opinion.

I can personally guarantee what Bruce said is correct.

somewhat I do have my own, it never changes except to add the "S" and the SSL isn't used until you enter the shopping cart and proceed to checkout. Your own SSL? Honestly, with OSC there is only one or two settings you have to change to utilize the SSL. Your own merch account? Not unless you want to pay the monthly fee, I think you would be throwing money away getting one if you don't need it.

Sure will, it is one file in particular and how it contacts linkpoint that I am having issues with, troubles with cURL. I get that fixed and you can have a copy of that file.

I got the account. There is a contrib for it. I am having a bear of a time getting it to work though. If I can get the account anyone can though. Looks like I will be using them for a while of I can get this dang contribution to work.

I know what you can get for the cats monkey boy. It's.....uhhhh..... dang it, cant think of it. It is on the tip of my forked tongue. Edit: We keep my wifes cats litter box in the computer room, guess what happened as I typed this? I will be out of the room for a bit now. Guess she didnt like my comment.

Sorry, I got hungry.

As am I oh graveyarded one. Looks interesting.

They use linkpoint card service international, or at least that is what I will be using and there is a contrib for osc with it. Updates soon.

I just signed up for it. I will let you know what I find out as soon as I get an answer.

Well, I have not used it before but reading the documentation on it I would say that you shouldn't have any issues with it working on our servers. It looks pretty scalable as well.

Jeeze, Get a simian in here and he gets delusions of grandeur, where is Charlton Heston when you need him?

Tough question, What are you going to be doing with the site? Text and pictures? How many pages to start? What kind of growth are you shooting for? How many visitors? Is it a new site or an existing one? My site of over 1000 pages with images was using under 2 Gb a month, Mikes had over 9. It depends on what you are going to be serving. Remember you can upgrade later if you need to.

Yes you can get your SSL here, just open a helpdesk ticket and they can get the ball rolling.
