texte = Can someone lend me their expert advise on these problems?My server is running Web* 2.1, WebCatalog 2.0.1 and WebMerchant. (Mac)I am attempting to use WebCatalog And WebMerchant to sell high-resolution graphic images and download them to the customer after approval.The storefront is based (loosely) on the templates in the General Store.My problems are as follows:1. When the transaction is completed, there is no link to the file created in the ThankYou page.WebMerchant does create the html file and the alias to the high-res image and puts them in the WebDelivery folder.How do I modify the ThankYou.tmpl to include this link? 2. I manually linked to the html file containing the link to the image to download. Instead of displaying the download status bar Netscape attempted to load it as an inline image. (The images are 1.8 Meg jpeg files with the .jpg suffix.) Which Netscape, of course, gagged on and gave an out of memory error.I then tried to make use of WebStar’s AutoBinHex plug-in by adding .hqx to the end of the URL and got the “You have been denied access to the server based on your domain name or IP address.” message.Do I have to run an FTP server in order to deliver files like this?Sorry for my lack of experience in this sort of thing, but I couldn’t find any info directly related to these two issues in the WebCat, WebMerchant or WebStar manuals. Thanks BIG, Kevin Mueller ArtOnCall.com
