    A quick way to bypass "SRC" error box...

    I've just come up with a quick way to automatically bypass the error box that comes up when you're uploading. This is the error box that that has the following text:

    "Warning: The HTML templates specify source files (with "SRC=" commands) that reside in directories other than the acatalog directory on the web site. Actinic Ecommerce can not handle these files and they are being omitted from the list of files to upload.
    No source files in the templates should have a path. Store them in the site specific directory locally, and they will be uploaded to the Actinic Ecommerce web directory."

    I did it just to speed up testing of a site, as I was doing multiple successive uploads to the web server on my PC - it's more effective than preview because I'm testing some cgi.

    The instructions are here:

    It's only a quick bodge fix. If you want something more sophisticated, then you should try Jan's automation mole at: www.mole-end.biz


    Hopefully this error box is something Actinic will remove or make optional in the future, because it's pretty useless. But then hopefully they are working on improving the whole upload process anyway!

      Yes, AutoIt is an excellent (free) tool - very easy for quick automation of multiple keystrokes etc.
