Missing info in field
 

I discovered what looks like a bug tonight.

A user posted a wanted ad. When I look at this post in the showcat listing, the date is moved from the date field to the view field.

It looks fine on the showproduct page.

I also checked the database and it looks fine there as well.

What gives? I'll attach a screenshot.

well I would have to see the actual page and view the html source to guess at what is going on

I am going to assume the description field which is truncated at 175 characters is cutting a html tag in half which is causing this but can't be sure without seeing your site.

Here is the showcat page.

Chuck, have you had a chance to look at this?

Yep

If you have one to sell, price it and email

You can try this in showcat.php

$desc = un_htmlspecialchars(convert_markups($desc));

to say this

$desc = un_htmlspecialchars($desc);

That took care of it.

Thanks.
