Next Button

Hi Peter,

Do you mean those for "Next Product" and "Previous Product"  ?
I don't see how they could be confused by those - get brighter customers :-)

Seriously though, I would consider amending the graphic for the "Next" button to have text that better describes what it does - that avoids amending the ASP code which has an ongoing maintenance overhead.
If that's not what you want/need please provide a link to the offending page & I'll take a look.  

To expand on Hamish's post, you want to insert a ' in the statement below.  That will prevent pcs_NextButtons from being executed.

              <!-- Start Back and Next Buttons -->
             <%'pcs_NextButtons%>
             <!-- End Back and Next Buttons -->

As you edit pages like this, it will be useful to place a comment in the top of the page, and perhaps adjacent to the change, indicating what alterations you made.  Perhaps even retain a worksheet of the pages you edited for future reference when you want to re-apply the changes against a future software upgrade.

Hi

Thanks for that. The particular page or group of pages are at http://www.abyss.com.au/productcart/pc/Lessons-Saturday-Sund ay-91p2715.htm

We have had about a dozen phone all from people clicking the "Next Item" button and getting confused (instead of add to cart button). If we have had that many I wonder how many have not rang and just abondoned the process. I wonder how many customers i am loosing that way.

With the Commneting out

<!-- Start Back and Next Buttons -->
             <%pcs_NextButtons%>
             <!-- End Back and Next Buttons -->
I am doing something wrong as once I do it the page does not work any more. Should i make the Gif files for the buttons jus one pixcel and white?

 

 

Hi Peter,
      Looking at your site I would say the Next Item and Previous Item are useful for, say, comparing all the different regulators etc.

I think a better option may be to change the graphic for "Add to Cart" - I would make it bigger and brighter to get the customers to focus in on that as the main option to choose. Also - is "Add to Cart" the correct wording for the Australian market - perhaps chaging the wording would help.

This was you can leave the buttons where they are (less customisation) and guide customers eyes and fingers to the correct place.

 

Hi Peter,
     I think that will do the job -even those with the narcs should hit the right button now !
