[quote="sonny"][code]<!--THERE IS A LAYOUT BUG THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED::: The bug displays the footer in the right column, 
so if you make any modifications to the width of OSCOMMERCE sometimes the footer gets stuck
in the column_right.php <table>, THE FIX IS SHOWN BELOW --->[/code][/quote]This is caused by a bug in PHP.  Discussed [url=www.oscommerce.com/community/bugs,1242]here[/url].  In a stock MS2 index.php, the closing table tag for column_right is on line 329.  It's the next line after <!-- right_navigation_eof //-->.  What you call the main table gets closed on line 331.  footer.php has its own table below this.

Also, tep_customer_greeting displays the "Welcome Guest!" text.  The TEXT_MAIN line you point out starts with "This is a default setup".
