Can someone explain how actinic works this out? What is the difference between NETQUOTEDEL:PRELIMINARYINFORMATION and NETQUOTEVAR:PRELIMINARYINFORMATION? Why is NETQUOTEDEL:PRELIMINARYINFORMATION listed twice but with different results? or am I reading the wrong bit...?

[I-CC]

The NETQUOTEDEL markers (1st) and then normal content, then NETQUOTEDEL (2nd with the exact same name) is means for the Actinic software to "Delete" the content if it is not required.

i.e. so if any option is not being used from settings assigned directly within the software, then it looks for the NETQUOTEDEL:??? to the next NETQUOTEDEL:??? for that option is not used in the end resultant pages...

I think LOL

so it's a way of commenting out stuff? so the result of those 3 lines should be nothing at all?

[I-CC]

No, not nothing at all...

It depends on settings assigned within the software as to whether the content within the DEL's are shown, which for that...

NETQUOTEVAR:PRELIMINARYINFORMATION

Will most probably need to be shown....

The idea (like with the new COUPONS in v7) is that if the option is enabled within the software, then the content within the DEL is used and shown, if not enabled then it is not shown and the software upon generating the site deletes everything within the ??DEL statements.

So, it all depends on what is enabled and what is not as to how each ??DEL is processed..
