Different content depending on static or dynamic pages.

I’m having problems with the call when I try to add different content to the links pages depending on if they are static or dynamic.
I’ve tried the following and others without success and used the <%DUMP%> but cannot see anything I can use.

<%if URL contains 'index'%>
Static info
<%else%>
Dynamic info
<%endif%>

<%if get_url contains 'index'%>
Static info
<%else%>
Dynamic info
<%endif%>

If someone could give me any pointers it would be appreciated.

I use index.shtml for static and page.cgi for dynamic.

Thanks

Regards

Hi,

You could try something like this;

<%decide_if_dynamic%>
<%if is_dynamic%>
this means were dynamic
<%else%>
were not in dynamic mode
<%endif%>

Code:
sub { 
 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} ? return { is_dynamic => 1 } : return { is_dynamic => 0 } 
}

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Hi Andy

Thanks for the reply.

Tried your global exactly as it’s displayed above but can’t get it to work.

Static and Dynamic pages return the same result “this means were dynamic”.

If I just use

Code:
sub {  
 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}  
}

To print out SCRIPT_NAME on the pages the
Static page “index.shtml” displays /cgi-bin/nph-build.cgi
and Dynamic page “page.cgi displays /cgi-bin/page.cgi

Is there something I’m doing wrong ?

Thanks

Regards

Hi,

Ah, didn't think about that (I was expecting SCRIPT_NAME} to just be blank when generated by nph-build.cgi - but I guess it isn't :D)

You could try;

Code:
sub {  
 my $p = $IN->param('g') || $IN->param('p') || $IN->param('page') || $IN->param('d'); 
 $p ? return { is_dynamic => 1 } : return { is_dynamic => 0 }  
}

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Hi Andy

That does help and works with the page.cgi and index.shtml.

Now, I know your going to swear at me but................. Tongue

I also use a sorting option of city, region and country which are dynamic also using
city.cgi , region.cgi and country.cgi which just show up as static "were not in dynamic mode"

Thanks for your help.

Do you have a wish list at amazon ? Wink

LOL.. try;

Code:
sub {   
 my $script = $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}; 
 if ($script =~ /(city|region|country)\.cgi/i) {   
      return { is_dynamic => 1 }  
 } 
 my $p = $IN->param('g') || $IN->param('p') || $IN->param('page') || $IN->param('d');  
 $p ? return { is_dynamic => 1 } : return { is_dynamic => 0 }   
}

Hope that helps =)
