After i installed the scroptm I build those pages and check it, but only a "Unknown Tag : Description_name" there. Do any know what goes wrong?

My problem site http://search.website.com.hk/Computer_and_Internet/

I think, you are using templates.
Edit link.html and check the description area of a link.

There schould be:
<%if Description%>
<%Description%>
<%endif%>

Maybe you are using <%description_field%>!

Sorry typing error!
Maybe you are using <%Description_name%>
instead of <%Description%>

JF

nope, the tag is correct,
it's "Description" instead of "Description_name"

so what happen to my script?

What he was trying to tell you is, you are using <%description_name%> in the template and it should be <%description%> or <%Description%>. Fix the template and the problem should go away. There is no such variable as <%description_name%>.

I've been having the same problem with the "Unknown Tag" error. This seems to be caused by the fact that the Perl API is not installed on my web host's server. The only work-around I've been able to find is to use the "site_html.pl" file for building the pages (instead of using templates).

One of the drawbacks to this is that the Mailer.pm module doesn't work either - which means users are receiving confirmation emails filled with "Unknown Tag" comments after I validate their listing.

I'm currently modifying the script to reincorporate the v1.x email subroutines as a short-term work-around.

The solution, though, is getting the API installed on your host's server.

It seems that the tags is correct.

I am using Unix Hosting. Is Unix Host needs Perl API?

Yup, you're right, it looks right to me also. Make sure that sub site_html_link in site_html_templates.pl contains the %rec line in the following:


I hope this helps.

I didn't amend any line of those scripts...

I %rec variable is there....

Well, I just revisited the link you provided in the first message and no Unknown tag error is coming up now, so you must have figured it out.
