Editing the "Home' Link

How do I point the "Home" hyperlink under the Company Info heading on the main page to a different place. I have a webpage pointing to the cart, but want to be able to use the Home button to return to the website as well as just clicking the back button.

Thanks in advance for any help. :D

RE: Editing the "Home' Link

hell-o
there are two ways to do this.
1- remove the script and hard code the links and name them what you want.
2- leave the script. just before the script add the link to your home page and name it "Home". then go to the agora.cgi file and open it in notepad. scroll down to the second to the last sub and see this line:

$cartlinks = "<a href=\"$sc_store_url?cart_id=$cart_id\" style=\"text-decoration: none\">Home</a>\n";

change it to this:

$cartlinks = "<a href=\"$sc_store_url?cart_id=$cart_id\" style=\"text-decoration: none\">Store Front</a>\n";

in otherwords just change it from Home to Store Front. nothing else.
besure to download and upload this file via ftp in ascii. or, you can edit with your ftp client . but besure you're in ascii when you do.

the other option:

create an html page that forwards toteh page you want as the "home" page. name it sumtin like: Main_Site_Home.html

then place in the html directory... it will automatically be in the menu next time cart is visited

RE: home page link

you must remove the entire script and replace with a plain html link.

cart_footer.inc

<INPUT TYPE="IMAGE" NAME="continue_shopping_button" VALUE="Continue Shopping" SRC="%%URLofImages%%/continue_shopping.gif" BORDER="0">

<a href="http://www.domain.com"><image src="agora.cgi?picserve=continue_shopping.gif"></a>

something to that effect.

well I was in the agora.cgi and I changed line 1604 from this

Code:

$cartlinks = "<a href=\"$sc_store_url?cart_id=$cart_id\" style=\"text-decoration: none\">Home</a>\n";

to this

Code:

$cartlinks = "<a href=\"http://www.fieldsofgold.co.uk\" style=\"text-decoration: none\">Home</a>\n";

error apeared so I put it back to its original and now there is a internal server error.
I used Cpanel to instal agora cart if that helps

RE: home page link

at a glance the script looks ok. however, if you're downloading and uploading any pl, cgi, lib or any other plain text files with "unusual" extensions with cpanel then you will corrupt them. cpanel doesn't know these are plain text and uploads them in binary by default.
so, use ftp only to upload and download your store files. all store files except images xfer in ascii. images in binary.
try ftp and if you still have errors post back.
