Provide
HTML Code (Select "I have the HTML code
for this web page"): |
If you have web pages
that were created and/or modified with other software,
you can insert the HTML code onto your E-Commerce website
through the FORTUNE3 Shopping Cart and E-Commerce Wizard
software. You can also create new HTML pages from scratch
and even use HTML editors like
Dreamweaver or FrontPage to create and edit any
web page on your site. When
you edit or add a page, select the "I have the
HTML code for this web page" option and then specify
whether or not you want to enclose the page design within
the company's template. Click on "Next >" to continue.
NOTE:
The pre-designed pages come as HTML code and with the
company's template by default. You can edit them directly,
or provide your own HTML as explained in this section.
When enclosing a page design
within the company's template, you will be prompted
to fill in the "Web Page Specifications",
which are the Meta Tags for that page (Title, Description,
and Keywords):
Web
Page Specifications (this window only appears if you
selected the With Company's Template option):
Title
- The title for this particular web page.
The title appears
on the top title bar of browsers, and is used
by search engines to display a title for this
web page, and possibly to determine where to position
this web page on their search results.
Description
- A description for the web page you are
currently adding or editing. This
will be used by search engines to display a description
for this web page on their search results page
(under the title), and possibly to determine where
to position this web page on their search results.
Keywords
- Will be used by search engines to determine
the ranking and positioning for this web page
on their search results when people search for
your keywords. |
NOTE: If you selected
the "Stand Alone" form of web page,
it is up to you to insert the Meta Tags and Title Tag
in your HTML code, since you will not be using the template
on this web page, the Wizard will not prompt you to
enter these fields.
Enter the Meta Tags and then click on "Next >"
to continue.
Adding
/ Editing the HTML Code:
If you want to edit this
page with an HTML program such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage,
click on "Finish", close the automatic preview,
press "Finish" again, and continue forward.
Otherwise, paste the HTML code on the white-panel,
or edit the HTML code that is already in the white-panel.
Use the "Preview" button and make changes
until you are completely satisfied with your page.
Click on "Finish" to save your page and go back
to the Wizard's My Web Pages
section.
Folder
Path (Use this folder path to save your images):
This field specifies
the Folder Path in your local drive for the html
pages and graphics of your website's informational web
pages.
The Folder Path is usually located in this
directory on your PC:
C:\Program Files\FORTUNE3 Wizard\webpages\Username\
Incorporate all images and
animated objects referenced in the HTML code by saving
their corresponding files (.gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe,
.png, .fla, .swf, .swd, .spl formats) directly into
the specified Folder Path - do not use sub-folders.
Any files of this type that are in the Folder Path
will be uploaded with your site on your hosting space's
Root directory. Therefore, all references to images
and objects in the HTML code should be made directly
to the filename and extension - no path or sub-folders
(i.e. - <IMG SRC="filename.ext">).
You may also click on the
"Preview" button; and you will be prompted
to browse for any missing images. When you browse and
select a missing image, the Wizard will automatically
copy the image you selected to your Folder Path.
Editing
your Web Pages in HTML Editing Programs like Macromedia
/ Adobe Dreamweaver or Microsoft FrontPage:
In order to edit your web pages in an HTML editor
like Dreamweaver or FrontPage, you must first select
the option "I have the HTML code for this web page"
on the Edit Page section for each page that you want
to edit in the HTML program. Make sure that the HTML
panel screen for this page is not open in the Wizard
(that you are not currently viewing the HTML code for
this page). You may then open the HTML editor program
(Dreamweaver, FrontPage) and go to File -> Open.
Then browse through your PC's files to the following
folder on your computer (Same as Folder Path):
C:\Program Files\FORTUNE3 Wizard\Webpages\Username\
In this folder, you will find all
of the HTML pages that are in your FORTUNE3 Wizard.
Simply open the HTML page that you want to edit in the
program (if you want to edit your HOME page, open the
file named index.html). With the web page open, make
your changes and then simply save the file. Once you
save the file you are done, the next time you upload
your site you will see the changes you've made to the
HTML pages.
NOTE: In order for a web
page to be uploaded to your site, the HTML page needs
to be both, listed as a web page in the "My
Web Pages" section of the FORTUNE3 Wizard,
and its file must be located on the Folder Path.
Having an .html file in the Folder Path alone
and not having it listed in the Wizard as a web page
will not upload the page to your site.
Links
/ Link Tokens / Tags:
You can include links
to the web pages that are automatically generated by
the FORTUNE3 Shopping Cart and E-Commerce Wizard software.
There are several tokens that have been reserved by
the Wizard and will be automatically converted to the
corresponding URLs that point to specific web pages.
An example of a token is "{f3search}" which will
automatically be converted to your search page's URL.
The list below indicates tags/tokens that can be incorporated
into the HTML code of your existing web pages, as well
as those pages created by the Wizard's HTML generator.

An example of a token is "{f3index}"
which will automatically be converted to the URL of
your HOME Page.
Thus, you may include a couple of links in your HTML
code by entering the following:
<a href="{f3index}">Home
Page</a> | <a href="{f3terms}">Terms of
Use</a>
And this would yield the following
output:
`Home Page | Terms
