    External link when searching is dodgy

    Hi all again.

    I've got another problem with the site I've put up.

    Please take a look - www.wirelessstore.co.uk

    I have an external link in the majority of products that opens a new window to the manufacturers support page for that particular product. The reason I used this and not the extended info link that Actinic does is because I wanted a new browser window so people didn't leave the site. The HTML I use in the product description is something like this:

    !!<<br><a href="javascript:ShowPopUp('http://www.netgear.co.uk/html/pdfs/wag311.pdf',800,600)"> Click Here for full information</a>>!!

    It works fine when you browse for the product on the menu system but when you use the search to find the product it then adds www.wirelessstore.co.uk/acatalog infront of the link which is not a valid URL so I get a 404. It only happens when searching.

    Also I've noticed that links to products via searching start a little down the page like this link...

    http://www.wirelessstore.co.uk/cgi-b...html%23a54#a54

    Any ideas on this crazy one please?

    Many thanks
    Simon

    If you de-select 'Highlight Located Text' in 'View | Search Settings | Results', the Actinic search results page will use a standard URL for the link to the product (rather than a link via the search script) and should stop this from happening.

      Thanks a lot Chris.

      That works great.
