Unfortunately a bug in the latest install.php script went undetected for a few weeks. It would have prevented anyone from being able to complete the installation. This bug has now been found and corrected and you should once again be able to install the software without any trouble.

The aim of this version has been to modernize the software. It now has an AJAX based add to cart routine instead of the old ugly popup window, the image zoom and gallery have been replaced with smooth lightbox scripts, the default design has got an overhaul and the checkout process has been simplified. For all users who host on Windows or servers with no built-in mail support, you will be happy to know that AShop finally supports SMTP mail, which means that you can send email through any mail server of your choice.

This version fixes several bugs and some XSS vulnerabilities. To update from a previous version, run update.php in your browser after uploading the new scripts.
