Hello

I've tryed calling jump.cgi?ID=43245 which doesn't exist in the database, but for some reason my browser tries to download jump.cgi. Is it possible to modify jump.cgi to give an errormessage (like the search-error) every time someone tries to jump to a link which doesn't exist?

Yea...change all the &error references to something like &site_html_jump_error, and also add and exit; after the (""); codes, like the following:


Then create a new sub-routine in the site_html_templates.pl file that is called sub site_html_jump_error. This can be an exact copy of the sub site_html_search_failure routine. Except you will need to load a new template file called jump_error.html

Then create a new template file called jump_error.html. Remember to change its permissions to 666 and put it in your template directory. Edit the codes in this file to include the <%error%> tag.

Hope this helps...

Regards,

Thanks Eliot -
However, I did exactly as you said, and once I changeed
to
in jump.pl, I get the following error:

I created the sub site_html_jump_error right under the sub site_html_search_failure in site_html_templates.pl and I have a jump_error.html template in place.

What am I missing?

It doesn't work because initially jump.cgi doesn't require site_html_templates.pl

add this

under
require "$db_lib_path/links.def";
