Hello from Greece - product options issue

[andreaspid]

Hello my friends

My name is Andreas and i am writing to ur forum cause i couldn't find any answer to greek or english forum...

I have a major problem with my eshop which is oc 1.5.1.3

The problem is that i can't procceed to checkout after step 5... i get this error in my browser "SyntaxError: Unexpected token <" ....

i looked the console in firebug and get this warning

Warning: json_encode() [function.json-encode]: Invalid UTF-8 sequence in argument in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/fairytale/catalog/controller/checkout/confirm.php on line 363{"output":null}

This problem happens only with products that have options.... these products only appear to cart if i refresh the page and they have this questionmark at the end http://screencast.com/t/ai5qNyZnG

Can u pls help me?

Thanks a lot brothers

hi,

guess, you have to replace all below function-names

strrpos
substr
strlen

to utf8-variations

utf8_strrpos
utf8_substr
utf8_strlen

as you can see - the same functions names but with a prefix "utf8_" at the beginning.

check browser console if there the same (similar) problem with adding to cart.

if so (and I guess it is) - you'll have to do that changes (and some more with other php's string functions) in ALL *.php files.

it caused by partial utf8 support in your version of opencart.

BUT !!!

if you're just starting to get acquainted with opencart - use Opencart_v_1.5.4.1.

afwollis the strange thing is that yesterday i made an upgrade of my opencart version locally not to live site to version 1.5.4.1 but i had the exact same problem....

i am a beginner to opencart and really have problem to correct my issue...

do u have any other suggestions brother?
