Reading external pages into the store

You may want to create extra pages other than those provided in the store. These pages could be anything from informative pages such as your own About Us or Contact Us Pages to web ring pages.

  
Procedure for using external pages.
These pages must be created in the root of your web site, They will be added to the stores content at the location of the 
%CONTENT%
code in your template. The page you create is read by the store and added to the stores content.

First create the pages you wish to be added, there is no need for you to add any header (banner) information in these pages as they will use what is already in the no framed template file. Name the pages with any of the following extentions. .txt, .asp, .htm, .html

An example page may look like this:
testpage.htm;
< div align="center" >
  < table width="100%" align="center" >
   < tr >
    < td align="center" >
      Test External Page
    < /td >
   < /tr >
  < /table >
< /div >

The above page will add the text "Test External Page" to the store when a specially formated link is clicked.


Next in your stores no frame template add a specially formated link that will point to and read the file we wish to add.

This link uses a special page called WsExtPage.asp and the file you wish to be read will be indicated in a query peramiter.

To create a text link for the above testpage.htm file construct your link as such:
< a href ="WsExtPage.asp?Page=testpage.htm">Test External< /a >

WsExtPage.asp - This is the file that will do all of the work of reading the file.
?Page=testpage.htm -
tells the WsExtPage.asp file to read in the file after the ?Page=

When a customer clicks that link in the store the testpage.htm will be read by the store and used in the %CONTENT% code.
