Other Info Prompt

[tristam]

How do you make the Other Info Prompt in the Prompts tab not a required field.

This box always shows next to the product but customers don't have to fill it in.

This has always worked fine for about 4 years on my site and I have just re installed Actinic 8.5.3 and now it doesn't work and gives the customer a "Required" error message if they don't fill it in.

Try for yourself by not adding text to the box but then clicking Add to Cart

I have tried old snap shots and this still doesn't work

The code I currently have is below.

<span class="actrequired"><actinic:variable encoding="actinic" name="OtherInfoPrompt" /></span>
<input type="text" STYLE="background-color: #FFFF99" name="O_<actinic:variable name="ProductID" />" size="40" maxlength="24" value="" />

You need to edit a Perl script. See: here.

I do now remember doing something like this but it was about 4 years ago now. Many thanks for your help.
