texte = Let's try this again. I posted this question to the list last week only to find out that only the first half was actually sent. Here it is again in its entirety...I hope.Let me start by introducing myself - my name is Craig and I am the Senior Multimedia Programmer for Accent Technical Multimedia. We recently purchased WebCatalog, and I have been given the task of making it work Let me also be the first to say that I am a COMPLETE NOVICE at WebCatalog, my nich is Director and Lingo. So, please excuse my questions that may seem trivial.Right now I have 7600 running WebStar and am using Netscape 3.01 on the same computer to access WebCatalog through WebStar. So far so good. I can run the whole General Store site without problems. In fact, I am quite impressed with how quickly I was able to get everything up and running.So now, I am trying to customize the General Store to accomodate a psuedo-site. Basically I have a simple database with Name, Service, Rate and Description fields. What I have done is copied the WebCatalog folder and renamed it Craig. (that way when I screw something up I still have the WebCatalog folder to refer back to).So, anyway, why don't I get to the point? I was able to customize the AdminAdd.tmpl, AdminAdded.tmpl, and CatalogAdmin.tmpl to reflect my different fields and eliminate the ones I didn't need with quick success. I can Add items to the database and they are written to the proper txt file (Providers.txt in this case instead of Catalog.txt) and everything works fine. The problem happens when I try to get the AdminResults.tmpl page to work. I modified the List all items line in the CatalogAdmin.tmpl page to search for items in the Name field that are greater than a:
List All Service Providers (from here you can modify or remove)Well, this works IF in the AdminResults.tmpl page I use the generic [FoundItems] code from the WebCatalog on line reference - (modified for my fields): [FoundItems] Name: [name]
Service: [Service]
Rate: [Rate]
Description: [Description]
[/FoundItems] However, if I use the code already on the AdminResults.tmpl page (modified for my fields) to display the found items in a table with headers, all I get is the table headers and the words [Name], [Service], [Rate], and [Description] - no data. Simply the names of the data fields.I found that if I move the closing tag [/FoundItems] to after the [/table] tag I get multiple small tables with headers and the correct data. So, I know the search is working - it just is not displaying the items correctly in one single table.Sorry this has gone on so long, and sorry that my first post to the list was screwed up - I'll do better next time...er...this time. :-)Thanks in advance-S.
