texte = Linux RedHat 6 webcat 3.xI have this code on my shoppingcart.tmpl-[showif [Header10]=yes][Header11], you ... [/showif]sometimes there will be no value for [Header11], sometimes it will equal yes. I haven't narrowed it down to be sure, but I think webcat is crashing on reaching this page every time. The above line of code is the only thing I have changed since the page used to work fine... (though it was on a mac server before that line got added and the crashes started... but I assume the crashes would have happened on the mac before if some other code on the page is the culprit.) I remember a couple weeks ago a discussion on blank values in a comparison like [showif] can cause crashes... Can someone define when one side or the other *must* be wrapped in an [URL] context to prevent crashes (if this is even a valid statement) ??like so-[showif [URL][Header10][/URL]=yes][Header11], you ...
