I have the newest agoracart and it's not in the cgi-bin.
I've changed two options in the "step one" . Instead of drop down menus in State and Country
I changed them so they have to write them in. The reason is I want to sell to everyone
anywhere (and I find them annoying) It seems to work fine until to go to the next stage Step 2 and it says "You forgot to fill in Shipping Address State" and "You forgot to fill in Shipping Address Country. "
This is my store http://www.subjectmatters.ca/africa/store52/agora.cgi
I'm sure it's simple but I can't figure it out. I've looked over what seems like thousands of inquiries to find the answer.

I hope you have a backup of the file, it will make things easier....
There are a few things that have happened.
1. Either the file was not downloaded or uploaded in ASCII mode.
2. You may have used an editor that may have corrupted the file...

This is where your real problems lie, and have caused the error:
3. The fields are not correct...

You need to get a default file and note the name="" variables for the fields...

HTH!

Do you mean a back up of the PayPal order form (which is the one I changed the options in)?
I was very careful in uploading the html files in ascii (I'm using cuteFTP)
As for my editor it's HTML Kit that I use and have never had a problem with corrupted files before.
I just changed the state and country to be like the first name etc. Perhaps that doesn't work??
I'm a little confused as to what you mean.

    Of course, I mean a backup of the PayPal-orderform.html file... You should ALWAYS make a back up of the default, working, original file *before* editing... Just in case an eror in coding is made...

    The reason I say this is that the file was not uploaded/downloaded in ASCII mode is that when I view the source code of the page, I can see the <!--agorascript-pre stuff in the page... The only other time I see that kind of stuff is if there is an invalid character in one of the "messages" fields in the PayPal Gateway Settings. An invalid character would be a ", #, &, @ or ' mark.... Do you have any of those charactes in the message box?

    Are you absolutely sure that you DOWNLOADED the file in ASCII mode. If it isn't downloaded in ASCII mode, the file is messed up before you even start...


    Okay... the fields are not correct... take a look at the code you have for the following 3 fields:

    value="$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City" size="30">
    </td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td class="ac_checkout_left_col">Province/State:</td>
    <td class="ac_checkout_right_col">
    <input type="text" name="Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City"
    value="$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City" size="30">
    </td>
    </tr>

    .......

    <tr>
    <td class="ac_checkout_left_col">Country:</td>
    <td class="ac_checkout_right_col">
    <input type="text" name="Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City"
    value="$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City" size="30">
    </td>
    </tr>

    Do you see that they ALL have:
    name="Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City"
    AND
    value="$vform_Ecom_ShipTo_Postal_City"

    Take a look at a default order form file for AgoraCart and you will see that those are different and specific to the information being collected...

    HTH!

    Sometimes things are just too simple to see.
    You are so observant! And fast to reply.
    One last question (I hope)
    My catagories are not in a list. How do I change that?

    Manager -> AgoraCart Management/Settings -> Layout & Design - Misc Settings
    Product Category Layout / Formatting Section

    Change the <br /> to <br>

    Then go to "Product Edit" choose a product, any product will do.
    Then just hit the submit button to "edit" the product.
    This will rewrite the category links and make it so that they are in a list format.

    HTH!
