    Where you found our site

    I would like to include a drop down list of search engine names between the Invoice address and Coupons items in the checkout process

    The drop down list would ask where they found the site from and give a drop down selection of the major search engines including things like adwords, press, friends etc that must be selected to progress further

    On another subject how can i make the check box for another delivery address more prominant as at present it hides away under the country info

    where you found my site

    Hi Chris,
    I've been using one of the three questions at checkout for this and making it compulsory to answer. I thought about a drop down list but it would need to be huge- "from friends", "from a magazine", "trade show", etc, etc, plus all the search engines and directories we're signed up in. We harvest the information (including an e-mail opt-in for further contact) and analyse the results. It's more time consuming but the results are more accurate also.
    Hope this helps.

      Already built into the Act_Order02.html template Chris. You just need to remove the comment tags populate the choices. This post might help http://community.actinic.com/showthr...=info+dropdown

        Sorry to be dumb on this but what bit do I delete

        <!-- Use the HTML below to have a drop-down for the 'How did you find our site?' -->
        <!--

        //-->
        NETQUOTEDEL:GENERALPROMPT000
        NETQUOTEDEL:GENERALPROMPT001
        <tr>

        The reason is I am trying to prove to myself that adwords etc are worth the money and the conversion figures make the other argument sound good

        This way I should be able to find words to ask if they found me from the main page or the right hand listings i.e.

        Google main page
        Google right hand box
        etc

          Chris - once you get it working be wary of making it compulsory - anything which slows down the purchase procedure can be frowned on by some visitors

              Your code should end up looking something like this (with thanks to Tracey Hand for the attachment borrowed from the post linked to above)
              Code:
              <table border="0" width="CUSTOMVAR:ACTSTDWIDTH" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="3">
              	NETQUOTEDEL:GENERALPROMPT000
              	<!--<tr>
              
                  <td bgcolor="NETQUOTEVAR:CHECKOUTBG">NETQUOTEVAR:GENERALPROMPT000</td>
              <td bgcolor="NETQUOTEVAR:CHECKOUTBG">
                    <input type="TEXT" name="GENERALHOWFOUND" size="40" maxlength="255" value="NETQUOTEVAR:GENERALHOWFOUND">
                  </td>
              </tr>-->
              
              	<!-- Use the HTML below to have a drop-down for the 'How did you find our site?' -->
