Hi
I'd like to know, in webadverts when setting up zones for categories and sub-categories, how can i use zoneA for category XXX and it's subcategories.

Do i have to use this code?
~;
if ($category_name eq "XXX") {
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zoneA.cgi"-- >~;
}
elsif ($category_name eq "XXX/adult") {
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zoneA.cgi"-- >~;
}
elsif ($category_name eq "XXX/video") {
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zoneA.cgi"-- >~;
}
elsif ($category_name eq "XXX/pictures") {
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zone_D.cgi"-- >~;
}
else {
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zoneB.cgi"-- >~; ### default backup
}
$output .= qq~

Or is there an easyer way to tell the script to use zoneA on category XXX and it's subcategories?

Thank you

Hi there,

Why not use simply:

if $category_name eq ("A"|"adult"|"video") {
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zone". $category_name .".cgi"-- >~;
}
else
{
$output .= qq~< !--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/zoneB.cgi"-- >~;

}

 
Yes, try this:
