HTML Generator For Dummies

[Morigan]

Hi,

 

Does anyone know of a good HTML script generator that creates URL links. Free trial would be good. Also banner scripts. Do banners need to be on the web for this? If so where do you put them? Can I use my hosting Admin to put them in my Image Folder and use that as a path?

 

I noticed when doing my links the scripts people have given me have hidden descriptions of the website in them. Is this a form of Meta Tags?

 

The generator has to be easy, as the one I have is too complicated for me to fathom.

 

Thanks people and Happy Holidays if applicable.

I don't know of any but if you search with google you should be able to find them. However, if you are wanting to add html links to pages on your site, you will introduce an error. Links to pages on your site need to have session ID's (SID's) attached. A regular html link won't do this. You need to use OSC's in-built function to do this. Creating links is fairly straightforward after you have done a few. Why don't you just post what you want to link to here and let someone show you the code you need. After the first one, you can just duplicate it and change the link name for your others.

Just out of curiosity, what is that link format? Say I want to link to yahoo.com. Thanks!

You'll have to use the tep_href_link function.

To link to an external site, use

<a title="Yahoo" target="_blank" href="http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo</a>

To lin to an internal page use

<?php echo '<a title="Your page name" href="' . tep_href_link('thepage.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . "Page Name" . '</a>'; ?>

What is this?--> "You need to use OSC's in-built function to do this." Did you mean built in function? Is this a program I can access in OsCommerce to generate page links?

 

Thanks
