    Removing Horizontal Rule between fragments

    Am trying, without any success, to remove the horizontal rule that is being automatically inserted between multiple 'fragments' on a page [both brochure and catalogue pages].

    Have opened various offending pages in Dreamweaver and the horizontal rule seems to be inbetween the instances of Act_BrochureImage.html and Act_TextOnly.html.

    Thought I'd found it with Act_ProductSeparator.html but realised after commenting out that that is the horizontal line between the actual products, which I want to keep

    Have looked thro other templates and searched here and the KB but can't find anything. Is it perhaps in the css??

    Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated

    Many thanks, Sharon

    Hi Sharon:

    I did some snooping for you and what I have found is in the Act_Whatever Layout.HTML you are using there is a variable NETQUOTEVAR:FRAGMENTANCHOR right before the <table> definition. I commented that line and achieved what I believe you were attempting to do.

    The following is the code as I have it now...

    <!-- LeftImageAndTitle HTML begin -->

    <tr>
    <td colspan="3" valign="top">

    <!--NETQUOTEVAR:FRAGMENTANCHOR-->
    <table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1">
    <tr>
    <td valign="top" align="left" width="30%">NETQUOTEVAR:BROCHURE_IMAGE</td>
    <td valign="top">
    <h3>NETQUOTEVAR:BROCHURE_TITLE</h3>
    NETQUOTEVAR:BROCHURE_TEXT</td>
    </tr>
    </table>

    </td>
    </tr>

    <!-- LeftImageAndTitle HTML end -->
    Hope this helps, or maybe someone else would like to share another way of doing this...

    Along these lines I would like to to know if there is a "complete" dictionary that explains ALL NETQUOTEVAR'S? I search the AUG for several of them including this one and can not find a reference to it anywhere with the exception of the example of how to have columns in a fragment. Is this documentation available and where is it located?

      99% of all NETQUOTEVARs are documented in the 'Help | Help Topics | Index'. A few have slipped through the net and will be added in due course.

        Thanks Chris, I will have a look... I search the help topics for this particular one and only got two hits, neither of which explained what it was or what it did. I realize that there are few that "slipped" and the is to be expected. Not a problem just curious if I was missing something.

        Thanks again

            Sharon,
            You are very welcome. I have been trying to study the users manual and am not afraid to test things so anytime I can help I will jump in. Keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well with the test tonight.

            Regards

              Hello Eagle

              Yes! your solution worked perfectly!

              No more offending horizontal lines between fragments but without removing the required lines between products,

              Thanks again

                  Along the same lines how can i reduce the width of the same horizontal rule? Tried ACTSTDWIDTH and it doesn't change it.

                    Go to 'Design | Text', click 'Go to' and go to ID: 2282. Delete the <HR> tag which is highlighted.

                      Hi Chris,

                      If we delete the <HR> as you suggested will this only delete the HR between the fragment and the product, or will it delete all HR's in the store?

                      Thanks

                        It only deletes HRs between fragments. The HR between products is located in Act_ProductSeparator.

                        If you want to change the separators for different products, copy Act_ProductSeparator and call it Act_ProductSeparator2 (say). Amend or delete the HR from the second file. Then copy or create a new product layout template and where the product separator appears under NETQUOTEVAR:INCLUDE Act_ProductSeparator.html, change it to Act_ProductSeparator2.
                        Useful if you want to remove the HR for lists of accessories or something like that.
