Showing the account name

[antrixx]

How would I show the account name anywhere on a page?

<Actinic:CURRACCOUNT> ends up putting more than what I need as it includes 'Account:' at the start and '|' at the end.

Is there a NETQUOTEVAR that I can use to just display the account name?

While I'm asking, is there also one to just display the 'Buyer' name?

I already know about Phase: -1 and ID: 212/213, but they are not what I need.

Any help appreciated.

Have you tried the...

<Actinic:NOWSERVING/>

Tag... Drop that in and see what that produces for you..

[antrixx]

That doesn't work either as is shows 'Buyer: (buyer's name) |'

Any other suggestions?

Those are the only 2 I am aware off for the accounts side of it, but using that and adjusting it within the Design | Text to remove the | and what you dont want is possible.

[antrixx]

Going through Design | Text is not possible for what I want, as I need to have just have the buyer name, or preferably the account name displayed.

Can anyone tell me the NETQUOTEVAR for this (if it can be done)

I've not tested this but something like:-

<script language=JavaScript>
document.write('<Actinic:CURRACCOUNT/>'.replace(/Account:(.*)\|.*/,"$1"));
</script>

Might do the trick.

PS the lack of <!-- and //--> comments in the JavaScript is deliberate. They interfere with Actinic XML parsing.

You will also have to make sure the single quote character ' is not used in any of your Account names.

You might also want to look at <Actinic:WELCOME/> and it's associated Design / Text / Phase -1, ID 210.

<script language=JavaScript>
document.write('<Actinic:CURRACCOUNT/>'.replace(/Account:(.*)\|.*/,"$1"));
</script>

The code does actually do the trick for just displaying, but it hasn't worked like I expected. I want to create a link where part of the link changes to the account name. (I probably should have mentioned that to start with)

e.g.
http://www.domain.com/link?id1=abcde&id2=<account name>

Using the javascript, I can make the link but it changes it to '<SPAN CLASS=' instead of 'account name'

I want to create a link where part of the link changes to the account name.

You'll have to be quite specific and give an example.

Norman

[antrixx]

If the account name is 'company1', the link would be:
http://www.domain.com/link?id1=abcde&id2=company1

If the account name is 'abcltd', the link would be:
http://www.domain.com/link?id1=abcde&id2=abcltd

The link would change to reflect the account name.

Hope I've made it a bit clearer

Hi there

Using the javascript, I can make the link but it changes it to '<SPAN CLASS=' instead of 'account name'

I think the reason why this is happening, is because in "Design | Text", Phase -1, ID: 213, You have the following code:

%sAccount: %s | %s

The beginning %s and end %s relates to <SPAN> tags.

Kind Regards

I'm sure you're right, but is there any way to just display the account name without creating and SPAN tags? Changing the design text is not an option.

Hi David

I'm afraid there is no NETQUOTEVAR variable which will just show you the account name. I will add this as a wishlist.
At the moment we use XML for displaying the account name

Kind Regards
