jmmorris,

Thanks for your thoughtful reply.

I am missing something with using a block and that is: Each ad is unique and has a unique id. How would the block be re-callable and "linked" to the ad when the consumer goes to the individual ad?

BTW Can I borrow your avatar someday? It would be perfect for me.

Joe

jdseymour,

Thanks for your suggestions. Perhaps I need to clarify. adCat is a XOOPS module written by theCat for classified ads.

In my proposed useage I want to make it as easy as possible for the ad poster to encourage a sale and receive payment via the adCat module. Paypal is a good way to do this. Of course the ad poster could paste the url of the item in the ad directing the customer to a web site. And some may use it this way. But paypal is far quicker and convenient for my purposes. And easier for novices to work with.

Apparently the editor used by XOOPS cannot handle the form structure. [ not a complaint there are good reasons for this] So I would like to know how to add this capability to the editor to parse the form.

Or, even better, ( are you listening theCat?) a "buy here" input "field" specifically for paypal and urls.

Good idea. The thing is each ad needs have its own unique button. And it needs to be easy for the user, who is placing the ad, to paste the button code into the ad.

And then when a guest views the ad they can pay for it through that paypal link or a regular url link if that is what the ad placer used.

The paypal thing is appealing because it is very easy to create the button via your paypal account.

Let me be more specific regarding paypal.
This is paypal button code:


<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

">

</form>

It produces a buy-now button that takes you to the appropriate paypal page for the item and account.
Ideally there would be a field to paste this code into in catAd when placing the ad and the result would appear at the bottom (or whatever) of the ad.
Could you do this?
Barring that could the dhtml editor be modified to accept and use the above code?

Thanks for catAd module, Felix.

How do I, if possible, get the paypal <form> code to work in modules like news or catad?

I want the user to be able toclick the paypal link go to paypal to pay for goods and services.

As I'm new to XOOPS I just got around to "installing" theme box and switched a few different themes. When I came back to the theme I had been working in the colons were gone.

So I wonder is there another file involved or did my browser cache not actually empty when I told it to. Browser cache gets my vote.

Working now and I'm happy.

theCat,

I made the changes in the 3 files, in that I removed the colon, cleared cache and still have the colon appearing.

I've cleared Mozilla's cache and restarted Mozilla as well. No joy.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Joe

I was hoping you would pop in, thecat!

So I need to edit all three files. I had only tried one at a time.

I'll give it a go later when I get to the location where I have the install running.

Thanks,

Joe

catad is a classified ad module. Apparently it is new to XOOPS as am I.

In listing each item's title catad lists items in an unordered list and then a description e.g. for sale, for trade etc. followed by a : .
I want to remove the : and title as well. Especially the : (colon)

I've been through the catad files and edited every likely point that would accomplish the change but no luck. Cleared cache each time of course.

So I'm stuck and hope someone can help.

Thanks for reading.
