The Rest:

I believe this error is being caused by this piece of code in the
menu.html file (~/lib/MiniMate/pages/config/menu.html) :

<UL>
<LI><A HREF="[directive-value VendURL 1]" TARGET="_blank">
[L]in new window[/L]
</A><BR>
                
<LI><A HREF="[directive-value VendURL 1]" TARGET="_top">
[L]in top of this window[/L]
</A><BR>
</UL>

I think the error message is generated twice (once for each appearance of
the [directive-value VendURL 1] tag.

I double checked to make sure that no errors of this type are generated at
catalog start, and that no errors are generated using the store normally.
I also checked to make sure that VendURL was set properly in my
/cats/isim/catalog.cfg (the location of the isim [catalog w/ problem])
file.

I have not looked at the other stores on the server for this trouble, but
I *think* that MiniMate would generate the same error, regardless of
catalog.

I will test this, and if it reveals anything interesting, I'll post more.
The problem doesn't seem to cause any REAL trouble, but I thought perhaps
I could fix it and save some space in my error.log file ;)

Thanks --
Cory
