general.php coding trouble install for SSL

[MichelleC]

Need help with code for general.php file.

 

I get this warning on my confirmation page of checkout for my site.

 

Warning: htmlspecialchars() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/username/public_html/store/includes/functions/general.php on line 42

 

I have installed SSL dedicated certificate to osCommerce setup/dedicated server. I edited the files for Includes-configure.php and Admin-Includes-configure.php. My site shows the https:// in the URL address and the lock shows at the bottom of the IE browser. Everything seems to work accept for this error message on the confirmation checkout page.

 

Do I need to assign something to the following code? What in the following area of code in the general.php file needs to be changed for the SSL certificate to work?

 

Thanks
