test site installed but need configuring

i am trying to setup a test site in the root of my website in a subfolder called test, the test site is a replica of my live store. "i have set up a test site in a sub folder in the root of my shop called test, i have also created a database for the test shop and imported an old back up of my website database from a few weeks ago the admin redirecting and working fine,if i press the online catalog button i am redirected to my test shop eg "http://mywebshop/[login to view URL]" however the test site does not redirect to the proper page link when i press on a category or subcategory i am redirected to my live site [login to view URL] i have tried changing the [login to view URL] files but i am still not having much look, so i need some one to take a look and configure the test site so i can use it for testing new contributions and upgrades etc . i have started a thread in the oscommerce forum here [login to view URL] please only bid if you are confident in fixing this issue.
