HTML link to a section

[con]

IN the advanced Guide there are instructions for "Taking People Straight to a Product"

It is possible to take people straight to a specific product with a hyperlink of the following form:
<a href="http://www.myserver.com/cgi-bin/ss00000x.pl?PRODREF=12345">Click
here</a>

How do I modify this to take people straight to a section?

hard code the section link into your page.

If you want to link to section pages rather than products, then you will simply need to use SECTIONID= followed by the filename of the section page, rather than PRODREF= . e.g.

http://your.URL/cgi-bin/ss00000x.pl?...html&NOLOGIN=1

Note that you have to encode any non-alphanumeric characters so an underscore '_' becomes '%5f' and a full stop '.' becomes '%2e'.
