What's wrong with detail.cgi
I recently tried to install Widgetz's detail.cgi, to show the detail pages on the fly, but from some reason, when i'm enter detail.cgi?id=xxx, It's tell me about an Unknown tag for the basic tags (like id, title, etc.).

What should i do to present the Detailed Pages correctly?

P.s the same tags shown correctly when i use the Basic build_Detail option, based on the same template file.

Are you sure you put in the address:
.../detailed.cgi?ID=number where "number" actually is replaced by a number and not just type in "xxx"...."xxx" is supposed to be replaced with the ID number....


in templates add detailed.cgi?ID=<%ID%>

Uh...you have to link it in the following format:

Code:
<a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/detail.cgi?ID=<%ID%>">
Detailed View</a>

in the link.html template.

You link it the EXACT same way you would rate.cgi and recommend.cgi.

Yep...It is NOT EXACTLY what I wrote or what others have suggested!

Please look at the codes more closely.
