AOL Remote

[Vince Salese]

AOL has a tool bar & wizard called AOL Remote that's supposed to allow you
to add AIM to your website. I'd like to use this instead of Human Click.
However, the cut and paste code that's generated didn't work. It looked &
worked fine in Frontpage, but when I FTP'd the page to ShopSite, the AIM
tool bar was all broken links. Can't find any technical help on AOL so I
thought I'd ask here. If you want to see an example of how this could work
go to www.onlinemarine.com and go to their Contact Us page.

Has anyone gotten this to work?

My guess is that the FTP process broke the links or the directory structure
isn't correct. I imagine I'd have to see your webpage to be sure.

Chris,
There's redirects in the HTML code and I'm wondering if my webhost blocks
redirects. I'll have to check.
By the way, great website! Who designed it? I'd like to get in touch with
them. Are you on SS 6.0? I want to have the same table formatting that you
are using and it looks like the only way I wioll be able to do that is
through custom templates.
Regards,
Vince

Hi Vince,

Thanks for the compliments. I'll pass them along to our web designer.

We are running Shopsite 6.3 Pro for Linux.

The tables I think you're referring to aren't Shopsite-generated. All our
product pages are done by hand by our web designer and the order buttons added
using the "Order Anywhere" feature in Shopsite. This makes for much more control
over good-looking pages, IMHO, but everything has to be updated by hand.

I'll see if its OK with our web designer to pass his name along then I'll let
you know. I also do some of the web design for our Closeout pages and our weekly
e-mail specials, as well as keeping an eye on the Shopsite end of things.

Oh, I was also wondering if your host may not allow Front page extensions and
bots. We had some problems with that with our old webhost. They claimed the
way we FTP disabled the Front Page extensions.
