Product links in extended info pages

[suederry]

I have moved my product text into the extended info pages for a cleaner look, but the links to related products don't now work. Not sure if this is a feature of Actinic (no links from extended info) or if I should look elsewhere for the problem. Anyone have any ideas?

It may not be a good idea to move the product text into more info pop-up pages because these pages probably not get indexed by the SEs.

Can you post an example URL of your problem regarding the linking?

Product links in extended info pages

thanks, here is the url;
http://www.sandedge.com/acatalog/Garden_tools.html this is just one of several.
when you click on more the [link] appears like this..
Many thanks for your reply and your help.

Dont think they are available at that level - just the product template (maybe someone else could confirm this)

If the related product link was clicked from the pop-up it would need some fancy coding to re-load the main window and not the pop-up. Check out some of Normans donationware stuff over at www.drillpine.biz which may have something that could be adapted.. or a word with the great Norman himself

Here's how to get a link in the extended info popup to load into the main page. Put this example code in the Extended Info Popup Text

!!<
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var oname = opener.window.name;
myopener = oname != '' ? oname : 'myopener';
if ( opener && (oname ==  '')) opener.window.name = myopener;
document.write('<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk" target="' + myopener + '">THE NEWS</a>');
//-->
</script>
>!!

Thanks Norman

That's a neat solution and I will use this in future. I really appreciate your help.

Until next time, bye for now.

Thank you in advance!

you can change the way the pop up is called so its uses href rather than popup code thus extended info is spidered.

A post many moons ago by Norman details how to do this

Don't suppose you have a link as I'm not entirely sure what or where I should be looking for this?
