zathrus Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 Hi everyone I'm not sure if this is a bug, or a user mistake in adding the links, or if the script just isn't behaving how "I thought it would." (the words of doom in a programmers world) All the links look fine in the database www.whatever.com (I hope that's a real site someday) but on the site they show up with the extra path of http://sitethat-we-arebuilding.com/catalog...ww.whatever.com I installed the patch, but it doesn't change this. I looked through the code a while too and my eyes have not opened yet you could say. Has anyone run into this problem before? It's consistant with every link added, but the value stored in the database and when you check the admin is correct. (so it's coming from the display probably from catalog/exchange_links.php) Thanks anyone for your help. Jonathan Quote
Guest Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 Jonathan, Would you post the section of code that displays the offending links? Quote
zathrus Posted June 6, 2003 Author Posted June 6, 2003 <?php $link_link_query = tep_db_query("select l.link_title, l.link_description, l.link_url, c.link_category_name from " . TABLE_EXCHANGE_LINKS_LINKS . " l, " . TABLE_EXCHANGE_LINKS_CATEGORIES . " c where l.link_category_id = c.link_category_id and c.link_category_id = '" . $lPath .

"n"; echo ' <td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">' . "n"; //links under category $rows = 0; while($link_links_data = tep_db_fetch_array($link_link_query)) { $rows++; if($rows == 1) { echo ' <tr>' .

'</a></td>' . "n"; echo ' </tr>' . "n"; } ?> This is the section from catalog/exchange_links.php that displays the list of links. Have you worked with this module before? This looks like the problem might be in another file (at first glance anyway) More specifically (from exchange_links.php) this line would be it if this file was the problem. right from <a href to > <td align="left" class="smallText" style="width: ' . $width . '" valign="top"><br> » <a href="' . $link_links_data['link_url'] . '" class="exLinkTitle" target="_blank">' . $link_links_data['link_title'] .

Guest Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 Okay...one more request. :) Is there a URL where I can see the output while I'm looking at the code? It has bee a long time since I added a links manager to my site ...I am not sure this is the same one I have....What contrib is this? Quote
zathrus Posted June 6, 2003 Author Posted June 6, 2003 Well, I was about to post but I just figured it out (took long enough) I wonder what you had in mind though. $Id: exchange_links.php, v0.2 2003/05/02 Exp $ Links Manager for OSC v0.2 line 192 The specific line I thought it might be adding http:// between the double and single quotes, <a href"'http://' rest of the code Did it for both links in that row and it works fine Weird (no wonder silly couldn't find it, I was looking for a php error, but it was an html error) Hmm, do we let the author know? thanks for the replies I appreciate it Quote
zathrus Posted June 6, 2003 Author Posted June 6, 2003 http://www.salehut.com That's the site listed by the contributor. VERY nice site. Like the menu's. Not to mention my thanks to the author for providing an addon with detailed instructions that were easy to follow. Quote
Guest Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 Congratulations Jonathan! Good job on fixing your problem. If you haven't already, I would get in touch with the author and let him know what you have found. Quote
zathrus Posted June 7, 2003 Author Posted June 7, 2003 thanks I already have (hope I did so politely enough) Jonathan Quote
VJ Posted June 7, 2003 Posted June 7, 2003 Hi Jonathan, Oops, sorry I joined in a bit late. Thanks a whole lot for taking time to look into the code. Actually, the problem lies in the user adding the links... they're supposed to include the 'http://' prefixed to the url they submit. I think the following code change would make sure they add the 'http://' before the url. At least, it would act as a reminder, till I can come up with some url validation code. In file /catalog/includes/modules/link_submit_details.php, at around line 50, replace if ($is_read_only == true) { echo $submit_link['link_address']; } elseif ($error == true) { if ($entry_url_error == true) { echo tep_draw_input_field('url') . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_ADDRESS_ERROR; } else { echo $url . tep_draw_hidden_field('url'); } } else { echo tep_draw_input_field('url', $submit_link['link_address']) . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_ADDRESS_TEXT; } with, if ($is_read_only == true) { echo $submit_link['link_address']; } elseif ($error == true) { if ($entry_url_error == true) { echo tep_draw_input_field('url') . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_ADDRESS_ERROR; } else { echo $url . tep_draw_hidden_field('url'); } } else { echo tep_draw_input_field('url', 'http://' . $submit_link['link_address']) . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_ADDRESS_TEXT; } and at around line 155, replace if ($is_read_only == true) { echo $submit_link['link_reciprocal']; } elseif ($error == true) { if ($entry_reciprocal_error == true) { echo tep_draw_input_field('reciprocal') . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_RECIPROCAL_PAGE_ERROR; } else { echo $reciprocal . tep_draw_hidden_field('reciprocal'); } } else { echo tep_draw_input_field('reciprocal', $submit_link['link_reciprocal']) . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_RECIPROCAL_PAGE_TEXT; } with, if ($is_read_only == true) { echo $submit_link['link_reciprocal']; } elseif ($error == true) { if ($entry_reciprocal_error == true) { echo tep_draw_input_field('reciprocal') . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_RECIPROCAL_PAGE_ERROR; } else { echo $reciprocal . tep_draw_hidden_field('reciprocal'); } } else { echo tep_draw_input_field('reciprocal', 'http://' . $submit_link['link_reciprocal']) . ' ' . ENTRY_LINKS_RECIPROCAL_PAGE_TEXT; } You can see the code in action at, http://www.salehut.com/exchange_links_submit.php Thanks again :-), VJ Quote
zathrus Posted June 7, 2003 Author Posted June 7, 2003 thanks I'll need to put that in. and put a nice reminder in for all future users (....... grrrr) probably won't play with this again until monday thanks a lot vj (are you the contributor?) Jonathan Quote
VJ Posted June 7, 2003 Posted June 7, 2003 Yep, I made this contribution with code fixes and help from quite a few others... including you :). Thanks, VJ Quote
Guest Posted August 29, 2003 Posted August 29, 2003 VJ Where exactly would I apply the http:// update in the admin > links > new links page? Currently site URL and reciprocol page would cause issues if the entry was made with http:// prefix omitted. Can't find the equivalent to /catalog/includes/modules/link_submit_details.php in the admin section... It is not a major issue as it is admin only but a would be nice to have. Thanks Quote
macki Posted August 29, 2003 Posted August 29, 2003 Hi everyone I'm not sure if this is a bug, or a user mistake in adding the links, or if the script just isn't behaving how "I thought it would." (the words of doom in a programmers world) All the links look fine in the database www.whatever.com (I hope that's a real site someday) but on the site they show up with the extra path of http://sitethat-we-arebuilding.com/catalog...ww.whatever.com It's real!! Point you browser to www.whatever.com. I was redirected to www.beargear.com. Cool! :lol: Regards, Piotr Quote
VJ Posted August 30, 2003 Posted August 30, 2003 Where exactly would I apply the http:// update in the admin > links > new links page? Here's a quickfix you could try: In /admin/exchange_links_links.php, replace this code (around line 235), <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('link_url', $cInfo->link_url, 'maxlength="255"', true); ?></td> with, <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('link_url', (isset($cInfo->link_url)) ? $cInfo->link_url : 'http://', 'maxlength="255"', true); ?></td> and this code (around line 280), <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('link_reciprocal', $cInfo->link_reciprocal, 'maxlength="255"'); ?></td> with, <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('link_reciprocal', (isset($cInfo->link_reciprocal)) ? $cInfo->link_reciprocal : 'http://', 'maxlength="255"'); ?></td> By the way, I'm working on a newer version of this links program now. I hope to get it done in a couple of weekends (hopefully!). HTH, VJ Quote
Guest Posted August 30, 2003 Posted August 30, 2003 VJ, Now we are both on the same song sheet :wink: The admin http:// inclusions work perfectly. Perhaps an inclusion for your next release? You are a superstar, thanks for this contribution and your assistance. Thomas Quote
Guest Posted September 2, 2003 Posted September 2, 2003 I just tried to install this and in admin Im getting all kinds of erroes.. Right now Im getting this When clicking: LINKS: Site Title Status Action TEXT_DISPLAY_NUMBER_OF_RECS Page 0 of 0 ALso the Add Link? Image isn't in the package..
