External Links

[Queenswood]

Hello all,

I have a problem regarding linking externally into actinic.
http://www.queenswood.co.uk/news/page13.html

This is the newsletter that we send out. Problem I am having is that when you open the link it opens the page with the product first then it reloads the page within the frame. We want to load the page directly into the frame?

This is the code I use to connect directly to the product.

Is there a way to call the frame? so it doesnt load up twice.

Many thanks

Right.

Well, you could just use the URL that Actinic ends up with after the refresh.

In other words, instead of

http://www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/Catalogue_Preview.html

use

http://www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/index2.html?http%3A//www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/Catalogue_Preview.html%23a122803&CatalogBody

This is basically:

http://www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/index2.html

then

?

Then the URL of the actinic product (replace the colon with %3a and replace the # with %23)

then

&CatalogBody

Hi Chris,

Have done the above
<area shape="rect" coords="368,897,387,913" href="http://www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/index2.html?http%3A//www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/Self_Contained.html%23a122753&CatalogBody">
This was the first product on our newsletter. It still opens up the page first then opens the frame after.

Any one have any ideas.

Many thanks,

How odd. For me, that link loads the frame first and then loads up the 'Drain Pipe Planter' and 'Three Tier Flower Fountain' into the window once the frame has loaded.

Could other people try clicking on the following link...

Hi Again Chris,

Clicking your link it did indeed open up within the frame but clicking the links on the newsletter Its not doing that at all.

href="http://www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/index2.html?http%3A//www.queenswood.co.uk/acatalog/Self_Contained.html%23a122753&CatalogBody"

Although I did notice that on your link it shows at the bottom as the link href on mine it shows as the old link?

I think maybe the wrong image is being used for the newsletter?

When I look at http://www.queenswood.co.uk/news/page13.html I see that your 'Power-Drill Planting' link has the correct link for the 'All covered Up' section, the 'Drain Pipe Planter' has the correct link for the 'Dog Bag Medium', and the 'Cast Iron Door Mat' has the correct link for the '4 way water diverter'.

Many thanks,
Chris you are a (*) I only changed the code for the first 3 products but in the html the links started at the bottom. So when I clicked the link it wasnt the one I changed.

Many thanks for your patients.
