if not category popup-window?
Hi,

how do i change Links in that way, that instead of displaying the error-message ".. first choose a category .." popping up a window?

As example:

If a user is in a category - simple using add.cgi in templates ... if he's not in a category - using a little javascript for a new window with instructions ...

Thanks for hints.

Hi,

You would want to edit the templates that generate the link to add.cgi (header.txt in the defaults). You would do something like:

<%if category_id%>
<a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/add.cgi?ID=<%category_id%>">Add a Link</a>
<%else%>
javascript pop up code
<%endif%>

Cheers,

Alex
