Url problems with MAC computers....

Dated: Wednesday March 9 2005 - 14:07:31 GMT

the menu running on a Demo site, http://51637.shop05.dandomain.dk/shop/d ... opClosed=1, does not work on MAC systems.

Choose reseller -> "reseller login"

This is the link as it shows on a pc, http://51637.shop05.dandomain.dk/shop/b2blogin.asp

But using a MAC, the link is changed to,
http://51637.shop05.dandomain.dk/shop/% ... blogin.asp

It's the same problem trying both safari and explorer, so i think it's a general MAC problem

In Safari I'm seeing the URL exactly as you show it for IE.

Firefox is a bit different. It shows...
Code:
http://51637.shop05.dandomain.dk/shop/\shop/b2blogin.asp


What are the \\ you have in your URLs?

This code is from the head menu, and as it looks in my dreamweaver, to make the url's work.
If i remove the \\ it does'nt work.... ?????

aI("image=/db_red.gif;text=Home;title=Back to home page;url=\\shop/frontpage.asp;target=main");
aI("image=/1.jpg;text=Check out;title=Check out;url=\\shop/showbasket.asp;target=main");
aI("image=/1.jpg;text=Hot deal's;title=Hot deal's;url=\\shop/productlist.asp?specialoffer=1;target=main");

Url problems with MAC computers....

Hi John.

On the MAC's in our office the code is the same as on when you use firefox, which means the menu does'nt work???

Code:
http://51637.shop05.dandomain.dk/shop/\shop/b2blogin.asp

Do you know why this piese is changed from shop/.... to shop/\shop/....

Try changing all those \\ items to just a / .

See http://www.west.asu.edu/sa/testsite/.

The only one I worked on was the reseller -> "reseller login" thing. Ya gotta be quick to get over to it (but it shows the correct URL on Firefox now)!

Hi John. :D

A big thank you for your reply. I have changed all the url's, but i have no MAC at home so i can't see the result until tomorrow at work.

I really appreciate the help i got from you and Ruth. If it works on MAC systems we are for sure gona buy the menu. I also would like the search link to work the same way as the milonic home menu. This is the code i'm using, aI("image=\\menuitem/images/newsearch.gif;showmenu=Search;text=Search"); and, aI("text=SEARCH;"); but the search link does not open??

When we place the order in the milonic shop we can fill out the VAT # and the system immediately promts back if the VAT # is ok or not. Do you know how it works??

Hi Ducati -

The reseller link is taking me to a login page in both Safari and Firefox. :D

First, get those miserable \\ out of there! All of them should be replaced with a single / .

Now, your search menu doesn't have a search form in it. Can't search without a form. :)

This isn't a search, but it is a form that should give you the idea. Note there are NO ' or " of any kind in it (except for the standard opening and closing " for the aI itself)...
Code:
aI("text=Our Newsletter...<br><form action=http://whatever...><input type=hidden name=flavor value=subscribe><input type=hidden name=list value=pda><input type=text name=email><br><br><input type=submit value=Subscribe></form>;type=form;align=center;");


You can see this one at http://pdaoutlet.biz/ under the Services menu.

I think Andy wrote that routine. He'll have to answer this part.

Hi John.

I've tried to make the search form work for some time, but have'nt really made it.

This is the form i used in the old menu,

Code:
<form method="POST" action="Productlist.asp?search=1" target="main">
        <font color="#000000" size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Search:</font><input type="text" name="Keyword" size="12" style="background-color: #c0c0c0;"><input type='submit' value='ok' name='Search' style="background-color: #cccccc;"></form>


I could use some on this one...

Code:
with(milonic=new menuname("Search")){
style=menuStyle;
aI("text=`<form method=POST action=Productlist.asp?search=1><table><tr><td>Search</td><td></td></tr><tr><td><input type=text name=Keyword size=12 style='background-color: #c0c0c0;'></td><td><input type=submit value=ok name='Search' style='background-color: #cccccc;'></td></tr></table></form>`;type=form;align=center;onbgcolor=;onborder=;");
}


one line no wrapping, of course. This would be the submenu, you'd have the word Search in the main menu to get to it.
