Subject: [mv] flycat problem with arg

******    message to minivend-users from "Christopher P. Lindsey" <lindsey@mallorn.com>     ******

I'm trying to pass arg to all links on page like this:

   <a mv="page" mv.arg="[data session arg]" mv.href="[sql-code]" href="[area [sql-code]]"><b>[sql-param sci_name]</b></a>

It properly generates a URL

   http://vapor.example.com/cgi-bin/catalog/abamasp?9joUK2eA;Conifers;6165

but flypage complains that "this item (abamasp) doesn't have a catalog
page yet..."  However, if I remove arg from the URL above and connect
at

   http://vapor.example.com/cgi-bin/catalog/abamasp?9joUK2eA;;6165

the item is found and displayed.  In fact, if I put anything between
the two semi-colons the page will fail.

Does anyone have any ideas?  Is this a problem with my flypage (included
below)?

I'll give some reasons behind this, too...  There are a bunch of
categories of plants, like conifers, perennials, trees, etc.  Each
category has a master list that links to flypage (below).  However,
we'd like to have a "next" and "previous" button to thread through
the current category.  I was trying to pass in arg to contain the
name of that category -- is there a better way to do this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated -- I'm currently stymied.

Thanks,

Chris

******    message to minivend-users from "Rob Zimmerman" <rob@readysite.net>     ******

What I do is have the customer generate a key on their local system and 
then export the key to an .asc file. Upload that to the server and add that key 
to your keyring on the server. 

This way the merchant has the secure/public key and the server will have the 
public key which is all that is needed for pgp to encrypt a message. You can 
import the key to your local keyring as well and send them a test message 
to see if they can decrypt it. 

hope this helps ya...

I pass args like this

HREF="[area category sheep]"  then on the category page its in [data
session arg] as "sheep".  You can set it to a persistent scratch variable
as well:
[if session arg]
[set name="arg-input" interpolate=1][data session arg][/set]

and see it with [scratch arg-input]

you can modify it with perl like this:

[perl arg=scratch]
my($input)=$Safe{scratch}{'arg-input'};
... insert code that modifies $input here
$Safe{scratch}{'my-perl-output'}=$input;
[/perl]

[scratch my-perl-output] shows your new scratch variable.

Or go to the mailarchiv and search for "SSI" and "Erik Aase-Remedios".
Eric has write a ssi.pm! Maybe this can help you.

Hi,

Hmmm....what happen, if you get a new minivend? Do you edit all pm files
once again?

Regarding the trouble by using the include tag, i use this with
variable without any problem. In most common case, minivend can't find
any file, if the value of the variable is not right. Insert a code like

The value is : [scratch test] <BR>
include [scratch test]]

and check the value. If you have a file like ../yourshop/pages/test.html
and the value test is "test", you get no success. For example:

Filestructur:

..../yourshop/pages
..../yourshop/pages/test1.html
..../yourshop/pages/test2.html
..../yourshop/pages/otherstuff/stuff1.html
..../yourshop/pages/otherstuff/stuff1.html


to include all the files "test" and "stuff", a right using of the
include tag is

[include pages/test1.html]
[include pages/test2.html]
[include pages/otherstuff/stuff1.html]
[include pages/otherstuff/stuff2.html]


If you test the include tag without using a variable like

[include pages/<path-to-the-file>/<filename>]

and you get success, something goes wrong with your variable.

Regards,

Joachim

Only when I don't have other choice!
  
  Sometimes we need a file name to be created dynamically, because which
page
to include is depended on the previous operation. So I recommend add
this feature
to new versions (file and include with filename interpolated).
  Sorry for my poor English, but I hope you can understand me.

zb

Subject: [mv] bug report - cart functions and mv_click_map

******    message to minivend-users from Nathan ZYLBERSZTEJN <zyloo@zylooplanet.net>     ******

Hi all,

I already submit one message about this bug but I can now describe it more 
precisely. I have spent a lot of time on it and I don't think the fault 
comes from my code. This occurs when calling a cart function (save_cart 
,get_cart or delete_cart) by submitting a form with an image:

<form action="[process-target]" method="POST">

	[set get]
	[userdb function=get_cart nickname="the_cart_you_want"]
	[/set]
	
<input type="hidden" name="mv_click_map" value="get">
<input type="image" src="get.gif" name="mv_click.get">
</form>

The problem is that you have to submit it twice in order to let MV know the 
name of the cart you want. If you want to get your cart using checkboxes or 
radios, you'll get the cart you selected before: if you select first cart1 
you won't get anything. If you select cart 2, you will get the cart1, ...

I use mv_click_map in all my pages and it is the only problem I had.

The same kind of problem occurs with [setlocale...]and [L][/L]: You have to 
reload twice to page to get the effect of setlocale. Curiously it works at 
the first time using [loc][/loc]

Please reply if you met this problem or if you're using images with cart 
functions

This message occurs when using the back button to reach a page and clicking 
a submit button related to a one-click variable because if the page doesn't 
come from the MV server , MV doesn't know what to do

What I'm really interested in is making minivend aware of SSI INCLUDE
tags and dealing with them appropriately, whether through SSI.pm or
hooks into the [file include] code.

Either way I presume that it's going to take source changes, so before 
I think about making this change I want to make sure that this hasn't
already been done...

'Twould be nice to stick with one master set of files without making
special conditions for SSI vs. minivend styles.  Since it's probably
easier to make minivend SSI aware than Apache minivend aware, guess
who gets targetted...  :)

What I don't understand is why no one mentioned:

Both of these are chicken before egg problems.  Things happen in a sequence,
they can't happen all at once. If you set things in the right order, they will
happen as you want.

The [L] [/L] is not a tag; I state this specifically in the documentation.
It is a high-performance method of translating a page *when it is read*.
You can't change locales in the middle of a page and have it work.

[loc][/loc] is a tag; you can use that everywhere if you want to take
the performance hit.

Tahnks.

This is working. But some other modification is needed.
I put the followings in my ord/basket file

[tag header]
Status: 204 No content
[/tag]

When someone orders an item, he remains on the same
page. But if he wants to  see his shopping cart he
fails. So I added the following line in my catalog.cfg

SpecialPage          order          ord/basket1

Where basket1.html is the same as basket.htm without the
tag. And in the menu bar I changed the link from <A
HREF=\"[area ord/basket]\"> to <A HREF=\"[area
ord/basket1]\">

Everything is OK. (At least now)

Subject: [mv] Upgrading from 3.12 to 3.14, and problem with shipping and tax calculations when using pricing.asc

******    message to minivend-users from "Josh Walton" <josh@mtnsdsoft.com>     ******

First major question...  I am having trouble with the calculation of tax and
shipping costs with any of my items that use the pricing.asc file.  Both the
shipping and tax calculators return zero.  (The shipping is based on price.)
I assume this is because items that use the pricing.asc file have a zero
value in the price column in the products.asc file.  How can I get both the
tax calculator and the shipping calculator to pull the prices for my items
from the pricing.asc file when the value in the price column in products.asc
is zero.  Only about 20% of my products use the pricing.asc file.

I am using ver 3.12 Linux Red Hat

Also have there been problems upgrading from 3.12 to 3.14?

Thanks,
josh

******    message to minivend-users from Richard Russo <richardr@dgx.net>     ******

This is probably in the mail archive somewhere, but i couldn't find
it....

Is there anyway to use [tag sql] on databases other than the products
database?

I found a work around using a scratch variable
(http://www.minivend.com/minivend/minivend-list/1999/msg04694.html) but
using tag sql would be cleaner

I've looked through relevant documentation (sql search docs, which tell
about [tag sql] and the tag refrences which doesn't even acknowledge
[tag sql]'s existance)

The simple catalog is being skipped during minivend startup due to
a configuration error. But, the error message points to a very vague line
in a standard perl module as the point of failure:

Is there any way of fonding out what this "undefined value" is? My

Jon,

1) read the documentation for Minivend carefully.

2) test out the scripts as directed by Cybercash
separately from Minivend to be sure they work.

3) set up your catalog as stated in #1 above and
test it out.

4) If you encounter problems, check your error logs
(both Minivend, and the catalog error logs), refer to
#1 above again and also search the mailing list
archive. (lots of help there)

5) If you can't find the answer above, post to this list
but be sure to include specifics about your setup 
(although you may want to give a fake domain name
for security reasons) , any error messages and any
associated error log lines.

In my own experience #1 above is the most important
and helpful!

Merry X-mas to you and everyone else on the list!

If you are running CyberCash 3, then once you get CC installed on your 
server and it works, the minivend integration is easy.  Just make sure you 
put all the .pm's in your /home/minivend/lib directory, not just the two in 
the docs...  And make the few changes to the catalog.cfg file and you're set.
