NETQUOTEVAR Links not working!!

[Sheila]

Hi

I tested my catalogue pages and the links to Site Map, Log in, basket etc were working fine. Now both catalogue and my brochure pages don't seem to work. These links seem to all go back to the stores index page.

I'm using the following NETQUOTEVAR:LOGINLINK.

Any suggestions where I'm going wrong??

Sheila,

Can I have a bit more detail on this please. NETQUOTEVAR:LOGINLINK is only used for the login button and will take you back to the index page after logging in. The one for the basket is NQV:VIEWCARTLINK, for the SiteMap NQV:SITEMAPLINK etc.,

Kind regards,

[Sheila]

Hi Bruce

Please find below the lines I am using for each of the buttons that don't work.

For the Log in button:

<a href="NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBLOGINLINK" target="_self" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','Log_In','',1)" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','Log_In','logindown.gif','',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"><img src="loginup.gif" alt="Log In" name="Log_In" border="0" title="Log In" onLoad="" /></a><br />

For the View Basket:

<a href="NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCARTLINK" target="_top" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','View_Basket','',1)" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','View_Basket','viewbasketdown.gif','',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"><img name="View_Basket" src="viewbasketup.gif" border="0" alt="View Basket" onLoad="" /></a><br />

For the Site Map:

<a href="NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBSITEMAPLINK" target="_top" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','Site_map','',1)" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','Site_map','sitemapover.gif','',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"><img name="Site_map" src="sitemapup.gif" border="0" alt="site map" onLoad="" /></a><br />

And fianally Information:
<a href="NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBINFOLINK" target="_top" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','Information','',1)" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','Information','informat<img name="Information" src="informationup.gif" border="0" alt="Information" onLoad="" />ion.gif','',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"></a><br />

I hope this is what you need. Using the Advanced users guide p. 16 It says to put a '>' after the link" but this seems to create a mess on the preview screen.

I hope you can help!

Am checking this for you. Will post back.

Thanks Bruce. I was beginning to get worried that I would not be able to fix the problem. Hence a few more grey hairs!!

I've been looking into workarounds and I've managed to create a brochure page for the contact us page so that works fine and I've managed to make the view basket work with details from the advanced guide for viewing a basket from outside of an actinic website. I tried to do the same for Info, Site map but no luck. Will keep trying but hopefully you can tell me where I'm going wrong.

Just to let you know that the Left hand navigation was created using DW and uses JS. I thought the JS was causing the problem so I hardcoded a button and used the NETQUOTEVAR links but to no avail!!

Looking at the source of the code on your pages, I see that there is a space before 1 of the links in question and the Sitemap and Login does not have a link to go to, the sitemap source looks like this..

<a href="" target="_top" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','Site_map','',1)" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','Site_map','sitemapover.gif','',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"><img name="Site_map" src="sitemapup.gif" border="0" alt="site map" onLoad="" /></a><br />

There needs to be a value specified else nothing will happen.

The same for the login link...
<a href="" target="_self" onClick="MM_nbGroup(' - this needs a value

The Information link looks like this ...
<a href="(%27http://www.theindianweddingcompany.co.uk/acatalog/infopopup.html%27,650,450);"
the %27 you see before the http is a space before NQV:NAVBINFOLINK

The view basket link works just fine on your site.

Kind regards,

Can you check in Design | Options | Sections if you have 'Include sitemap in website' selected? Also are you on Business or Developer version?

[Sheila]

Hi

I am using Business ver.7

I've checked the options and the box is currently ticked to include a site map.

Sorry just read your reply but I don't understand what you mean by value. Would you mind explaining what I need to do as I can't see what I need to correct.

[Bruce]

Sheila,

Your site is working perfectly this morning. Looks like you found the answers to your question..

Kind regards.

Hi Bruce

Yes many thanks for all your help.

I was working on it all last night and all it needed was the actual urls. Curious why the NETQUOTEVAR's did not work though.
