Detailed view - i just don't get it?
I don't quite understand detailed view in links 2.0. How do I write a detailed view description?

Is it possible for detailed view to be shown only for links that have a detailed description?

THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED BEFORE IN THE MODIFICATION FORUM AND THIS FORUM...PLEASE use the forum's search option!

1) If you want to create static detailed pages, which are built every time you build your index, then set the build_detailed variable in the links.cfg file. Then you add the tags that you want in the detailed.html file.

2) Yes...You can add another field called isDetailed, and then only print links to the detailed pages that have details. For instructions on doing this...search the forums for isDetailed.

BTW: To save disk space on your server, you might want to use Widgetz's detail.cgi, which is found at:

Okay - no need to get moody! This server has been so slow this week end that I gave up on waiting for the search results.

Anyway, thanks for your help!
