Newbie Questions - Return to a search page and [L]Hi Scott,

>Stil trying to understand why the "Continue Shopping" Button on the
Cart page doesn't work. If I do a search >that returns multiple pages
can I set a variable so that the "Continue Shopping" Button or a link
returns to that >search page.

1. Make sure, you have a line like

[set mv_put_session]Yes[/set]

in your catallog page and search page. It will safe/store your all
variable in all your seesion.

2. If you use win, the redirection tag will not work well (tested with
mv version 3.12 and WIN 95/WIN NT).
You must use a javascript to redirect back to your results page.

3. If i am in mistake, forgive this email! Sorry!

Let me know, if i am on the right way and you have still trouble!


>What's the [L][/L] tag exactly? I've been looking but haven't found any
info.

1. Look into your minvend directory. cd to the directory "simple". cd to
the directory "html". Read the file "minivend.html". Search for "[L]".

2. If you want to use another language in your webpage, you use this
tag. I.e.
You have a line like

[L]Hello people![/L]

and in your file "locale.asc"
(...minivenddirectory\simple\products\locale.asc)
code                            en_US
de_DE                    fr_FR
Hello people!               (the same as code or slang)        Hallo
Leute!             "Allo ?????!" translated in france! ;-)

and your visitor in your website (in your shop) choose another country
(i.e. "Germany"), minivend will translate "Hello people!" to another
language from locale.asc (i.e. "Hallo Leute!").

BTW: I am still learning english! Sorry for my bad english! Correct me,
if you wish!
