Custom Page Info

Postby INSTARS, Inc. » Thu Jan 02, 2003 5:24 pm

Hello,

We are having some trouble adding "Subproducts" to our custom product
template. First let me say that we have developed all of our new custom
templates without a hitch and everything with our new version has worked
perfectly! We have followed your advise to Charlie on December 30 however,
the sub products do not show up on the Products More Info Page.

The following is within our Product Template:

Above and before the [-- DEFINE PRODUCT --] Tag is the following:

[-- DEFINE SUBPRODUCT --]
... our subproduct layout code ...
[-- END_DEFINE SUBPRODUCT --]


Then at the bottom of our More Info Page Template and within the <body> tag
is the following:

[-- LOOP SUBPRODUCTS --]
.....our formatting....
[-- SUBPRODUCTS --]
.....our formatting...
[-- END_LOOP SUBPRODUCTS --]


When we view the page we see all the other formatting correctly except the
following is where our subproduct information should be:

SUBPRODUCTS --]

When we "view source" shopsite did replace the [--LOOP SUBPRODUCTS--] tag
with <TR> and </TR>.

It looks like shopsite is cutting off the "[--" part of the tag???

Any Ideas? We are running the Pro Version 6.2.1 on Linux.

Sincerely,

Tony

Check the template again in a text editor. Some concerns might be that a
non-plain text editory may have converted some of the characters like maybe the
[ bracket, or maybe there are more than one space characters after the [-- or
perhaps try removing the tabs in front of the tag, put it at the very beginning
of the line (the help says on a line by itself, perhaps this means it has to be
at the beginning of the line too).
