Re: founditems / writefile

interpreted = N
texte = You're welcome. I should say that I've done this before. There are problems later if you write too much with the writefile. Here's slightly more elegant way to handle this so you don't need to change more than one product page template. The writefile should be: [raw][include file=productlisting.inc&start=[/raw][loopindex][raw]][/raw] This way the URL is static for search engines and the underlying page is easily changed in one template. This way you can put the search in the included file productlisting.inc. An even better way (at least in some situations), is to make the URL convert parameters at the web server level. In Apache, rewriterule and/or rewritemap work well but take some time to understand. For example, in the Apache's httpd.conf file: rewriterule ^/catalog/product([0-9]+).htm$ /catalog/productlist.htm?start=$1 A URL that the world sees like: http://www.domain.com/catalog/product0.htm appears to WebDNA as: http://www.domain.com/catalog/productlist.htm?start=0 If you use this, your links can all look static, but WebDNA still thinks it is receiving parameters in the URL. This avoids any writefiles which make the server messy. Bill -----Original Message----- From: Phil
