    Product Locator Script

    Hi all,

    Know the search script can be used to locate a specific product with this link..

    href="http://www.myserver.com/cgi-bin/ss00000x.pl?PRODREF=12345&ACTINIC_REFERRER=http://www.myserver.com/acatalog/&NOLOGIN=1">

    Have quite a few image maps that use the above link but some of the "pages" are to big for the product description box - can any parts of the link be removed to make the page smaller without affecting its function. Using Catalog 6 if thats any help.

    Many Thanks

    I don't really understand this. Could you explain what you mean by 'the product description box'? Are you putting the entire code for an HTML page within a field in Actinic?

      Hi,

      Sorry for not being clear. Yes we're embeding the HTML into the product description field using !!< and >!!, the template is set to "name and description only". Its worked well in the past but the full link is very long and some of the embeded pages now exceed the field size limit. Think that makes a bit more sense but this time of the morning dont hold me to it lol!

        A great tip to get around this is to save your embedded code within a text file in your 'Site1' folder (called - for example - include.txt).

        Then in the 'full description' field in Actinic, enter:

        !!<
        [INCLUDE] include.txt
        >!!

          You can get 20Kb in that field. Are you sure you're putting more than that in there?

            Pass but actinic seems to think so lol! Produce the page in dreamweaver, copy and paste the image map code and catalog produces a dialog stating the maximum product description size has been exceded.
