Better Product Review Flow
for osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2
I found the way the product review pages flowed to be fairly confusing, so I made some changes to mine, including:
1. Changed link to full product review from author name (which I would expect to lead to some kind of bio on the author) to a 'Read Full Review' link after the review excerpt.
2. Changed 'Buy Now' button -- which redirected customer to reviews.php after clicking on it -- to a 'More Info' button linking to the full product description.
3. Changed 'Back' button to reflect the customer's actual navigation path rather than going back to a page they may not have got to the review from.
The files included in this package are based on the originals found in osC-2.2 MS2. If you have made modifications to your files, a change log can be found in README.TXT.

Formatted the "READ FULL REVIEW" to appear as a standard link by bolding and underlining. As well, moved it to the next line instead of
being directly after the excerpt. This made it look tidy, as well as natural. Added instructions for it to appear that way in
reviews.php as well for continuity. Capitalized "By" in product_reviews.php. Added screen shot.
