oscommerce html product description problem

[matomoto]

hi there
my domain name , http://www.matmotosportas.com/shop/

im getting some strange error.

Whenever i try to add html codes to the product description in the oscommerce admin

example

<a href="http://www.matomotosportas.com/shop/images/520%20MRD6.jpg " target="_blank"><img src="http://www.matomotosportas.com/shop/images/520%20MRD6.jpg " width="363" height="129" border="0" /></a>


im getting redirected to http://www.matomotosportas.com


is there some kind of security preventing me to do so ?

i thought its the software and tried installing another version
still same error ,

please advice.

Remove the spaces after the image URL and the link URL - it may help.

Also, I suggest you stop using target_blank, as it breaks modern standard markup languages, and is bad practise to use.

Have you tried to create the description in a HTML editor such as DW and copy/paste the HTML into your description area? also check you might be missing something in stripping or formatting part. If this not help try to visit oscommerce community, you will get help from other developers there.

I suspect... mod_security Fix

As i suspected it must be the MOD Security as well.
but i have no idea to prove it otherwise

Thank you Eidolon

Yes, being redirected to your home page after performing an action or while trying to perform an action, especially with scripts and CMSs is a symptom that is 99% of the time being caused by mod_security.

Hope everything is sorted for you now matomoto and to the forums .
