Dear All,

Is it possible to change the URL of the automatic redirect, once a product has been added to the cart by the shopper? I have found how to delay the "bounce" in the shopping part of ACTINIC, but no mention of where the bounce should go.

I was pointed to this page - http://www.actinic.com/knowledge/acatalog/v6_Script_Changes.html , by support

But it doesnt do what I want

Your help appreciated

Many Thanks

Lee Garner

Hmmm... I don't know this one off the top of my head.

If you open ACTINIC.pm in Notepad and search for 'refresh' you get two chunks of HTML for the meta refresh code for the bounce pages.

$sMetaTag = "<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"refresh\" "; # refresh message
$sMetaTag .= "CONTENT=\"$nDelay; URL=".$sRefPage."\">\n";

In the second one only, replace

".$sRefPage."

with the URL of he page you want people to be bounced to.

The code would then read something like:

$sMetaTag .= "CONTENT=\"$nDelay; URL=http://www.actinic.co.uk/\">\n";

The usual disclaimers about script changes apply.

That was useful, thanks Chris.

For Info: I have found that if you only replace the second occurance, then the 'return to catalog' on the basket screen does not take you to the desired URL. However, if you do replace the first occurance, then the 'return to catalog' works, but the 'checkout now' also takes you to the new URL (though there's the regular chckout button as well which works fine).
