U get used to the SRC error... I have it on every upload... it's just the price you pay doing it this way unless you put EVERY image file etc involved in the acatalog directory so that in the HTML template all src references point straight to the file itselt with no proceeding directory changes or domain changes etc....

(eg: so every src reference is as follows)

Code:

<img src="bgrnd.jpg">

rather than 

<img src="/media/allpages/bgrnd.jpg">

I tend to just put up with the warning message on every upload. Can't be arsed duplicating images all over the place and consuming further bandwidth when users will already have the majority of them cached from the site's front page.

my menus are not preloading so I'm getting a script 'object not found error'

I don't use em so not sure... will have a look from work tomorrow at the templates and see what I can find out... possibly you're missing:

Code:

<script language="JavaScript" src="actinicextras.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

from your <head> section...

Thanks Marci,

I thought maybe that src thing was causing the object not found but somehow I've managed to get rid of it anyway.

I'll also just ignore that error then, good to know it is not a fatal problem at least.

Now I'm down to the last problem of getting my own stylesheets to work but otherwise I seem to be mostly there now.

I just realized that you can in fact still buy something even though I was bounced back to the original page. I did not realize that the item had been added to my cart and that I needed to click the checkout nav link to complete the transaction. It finally came to me when Jacy asked me to check something on his site and it did the same thing, then he explained it was supposed to.

Had it bounced me back to the index page I probably would have figured it out. So it turns out to be my fault I did not understand how it works, but I truly did get the impression that I was not able to get something into the cart. So it would stand to reason that others may also get that impression and exit the whole site and abandon their order. I think the best thing would be to have an intermediate bounce page that says something like, "thanks, items have been placed in your cart, returning you to the index page now, please wait...".

Or have a look top right on the catalog pages of our site now, where it will show that totals and values have been added to the cart!
