Code Showing on Product Options Combo Box

-- HikaShop version -- : 4.6.2
-- Joomla version -- : 3.10.11
-- PHP version -- : 7.4.33

Hello,

Just wanted to report that, under a very specific Hikashop configuration and product setup, HTML code showed up on the combo box for selecting product options (see image attached).
I turned Joomla debug mode on and set Joomla error reporting to maximum and no error was shown reported.

This occurred with a product (P) that had a Characteristic (C) where the first value of C was 0 (the digit zero) and P had P has it's own characteristic. After finding this out I tested placing P as an option in another unrelated product and the same thing (code showing up on combo box for selecting product options) happened.
So I do think this 'display error' happens when a product option is displayed where it's value is 0 (the digit zero). Not surprising given the 'powers' of zero in coding .

I don't have a problem with this, just changed the characteristic value to "0.0" and all is OK (thankfully the code didn't take 0.0 as meaning 0!). I also tested with 1 has a characteristic value (to rule out this happened with single digit strings) and no problem in this case.

Though a minor and easy to circumvent 'error' I share this because it might lead the Dev team to find and fix other similar occurrences that could have more serious effects.
I'm sure you'll have a good laugh when you find how this come about in the code

Hi,

Thanks for the report !

Add the code: before the line: in the file components/com_hikashop/views/product/tmpl/option.php and it will fix the problem. We'll add the change on our end for the next version of HikaShop too.
