V6 - Customising Checkout Process

[KeisonProducts]

Hi,

Our website uses SSI in order to keep a consistent template throughout the website.

Actinic is used for our online catalogue, and I have managed to set up SSI so that it works on all Actinic pages, bar the checkout process.

For example:

http://www.keison.co.uk/acatalog/gace.html

However, if you go any further, such as http://www.keison.co.uk/cgi-bin/ca00...CTION=SHOWCART you will see that the template disappears.

I have tried inserting the html on various templates to try and make this work, but it doesn't.

Has anyone know how I can get round this?

Rather than doing Server Side Includes, you can achieve the same thing by doing the include from within actinic. This way the external html content gets included before actinic creates the web pages and will thus be included in the cgi generated pages.

I don't know how you're doing it currently, but going to your actinic primary template and putting:

'NETQUOTEVAR:INCLUDE header.html' and 'NETQUOTEVAR:INCLUDE footer.html' (use your own filenames) at the start and end of the page respectively will include the header and footer content around the actinic generated stuff.

PS. Note that this just does what Actinic normally does but brings in the template from an external file rather than having it within the html within the template itself.
