AltCategory on add/modify forms
I've looked through the forum and read everything I could find on adding the AltCategories to the add/modify forms and I still can't get it to work. I can select AltCategories on the Add and Modify forms and they show up on the success pages but when I go to validate, they aren't there. I have had Alt Category on the Admin for a bit now and it's been working fine. Any suggestions of where to look for problems? I have double-checked the coding.

Please save your site_html_templates.pl, add.cgi and modify.cgi and your add/modify template files as TEXT files, upload them to a publicly accessible directory in your web server, so that we can see what codes you are using.

Please DO NOT post all the codes in the forum! Thank you.

Regards,

Eliot Lee

Thank you.

I tried it again this morning and had the same problem so the text files are here:

Hopefully you can spot the error.

You are using $in{'Altcategories'} - are you sure that matches EXACTLY what you have as the field name in links.def?

Are you sure it isn't $in{'AltCategory'} ?

Under the definitions in links.def, it's AltCategories (does the upper/lower case matter?).

Yes - it is case sensitive.
