![]() Hi all
When you are editing the product description and are using html to design it, is there an alternative to link to another page other than a static link? This is what I am using <a href="http://www.testsite.com/xcart/testpage.html"> I would like to use a dynamic link like: <a href="testpage.html"> Because when I change my cart the the root directory all the links I have made will have to be redone. Is that possible? What code do I have to use to enable these links? Or should I keep the static link for SEO purposes? Wow - So much to learn!

![]() I don't understand why you would create a product page in html, x-cart creates product pages dynamically using templates.

![]() I am using html to design the layout of the product description - not the actual product page. Sorry, I wasn't very clear about that.
I want to link to static pages without having to input a static link.

![]() I also am not clear on what you are trying to do and why
<a href="testpage.html"> would not work if testpage is a static page or rewritten URL created within xcart. I don't use 4.2, but on 4.1.x, you can use a smarty variable that indicates your cart location: <a href="{$current_location}/testpage.html"> This works in XCART - so if you are making html pages outside xcart, there is more involved in using the smarty variables.

![]() Two issues
#1 What I am trying to do is link a to a page from either text or an image. To link a page I am trying to use: <a href="testpage.html"> this works with static pages - I think I have sorted this prob out. #2 When I try to show an image into the product description I would like to use smarty but I am having problems If I use: <img src="{$ImagesDir}/test.gif" alt="" /> in the HTML of the product description it won't pull the image. But if I use this: <img src="http://www.testsite/images/test.gif" alt="" /> It works Thanks for the help

![]() In admin - general settings is the field "Parse Smarty tags in the content of embedded static pages" checked?

Your images must live in /skin1/images /skin1/images = {$ImagesDir} DO NOT use /images unless you want to break your site when it goes https.
