Header Tags SEO V 3.0
for osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2

This add-on is register_globals compatible

Header Tags SEO is based
on the Header Tags Controller but is not compatible.

-> The code is 100% langage compliant.
-> Removed the english/header_tags.php file in favor of database entries.
-> Fixed a bug introduced in a previous version. A spelling mistake would make Page Control fail in some cases. I only mention this here because
it was a nasty little bug I could never locate. So anyone having that problem should consider upgrading.
-> Added control options to admin->Configuration.
-> Added additional meta tag options. It is doubtful these will be used that much but a number of requests were received for this option so it was added.
-> Added an option to view the title and meta tags on the actual web page from admin.
-> Added Social Bookmark code.
-> Added code to apply mouseover text to the sites logo - unique for each page.
-> Added code to have the breadcrumb use the header tags titles.
-> Added an exclude list in admin/includes/functions/header_tags.php that prevents header tags code from being added to certain files (like checkout pages). This is
because those pages don't need tags and excluding them will simplify matters.
-> Added option to Page Control and Fill Tags so that the keywords can be dynamically generated from the pages on the site. Currently, the code only supports single keywords but I plan on
changing that. There is an option in admin to only pick keywords that fall within the keyword density settings.
-> Added an automatic page add feature. You still have to edit the actual file in the root but that's all.
-> Added easy install instruction for STS shops. There is just one change to make and the two contribution work together.
-> Added code to have the new features work with BTS based shops. There may be a few cases
where an option doesn't work due to how BTS handles the files, but they should be minimal and not anything to cause a great stir.
-> Changed how title, description and keywords are built. This should provide more flexibility for those that want that option. Each item has a sort order and is displayed in the string of text based on that sort order. So, for example, the title of a page can contain some entered text, the default title and the category and manufacturers names (if applicable), in any order.
-> Added an Un-Install file to completely remove Header Tags from the database. This should
make testing and troubleshooting easier.
-> Added code to use curl instead of standard php file calls. The code will try curl first and then switch to a file command if it is not present.
-> Tested in MS2, RC2, STS and BTS shops.

Please do not upload anything other than a full package. If you are not planning on supporting the code you upload, please do not do so since I only support my code and doing so would be a wast of time.

This is a full package.

Header Tags SEO V 3.1.8 Jack_mcs 12 Oct 2009  

-> Added some more code to Fill Tags to show what was changed.
-> Added silo option. See admin->Header Tags SEO->Silo Control for details.
-> Fixed social bookmark code to prevent SID from being added to the url (pointed out by Carl (theintoy). Also added code to include the
category name in the url for category pages.
-> Removed breadcrumb code from index.php in RC2 (found by gemcom).

This is a full version.
