MainIndex.asp in the productcart/pc folder. Most likely the actual text for the "Featured Products" is located in the languages.asp file in the productcart/includes folder.

Can you provide a link to your home page so we can see what you are trying to do? Most likely you just need to modify the languages.asp file and change the following line:

dictLanguage.Add "english_mainIndex_7", "Featured Products"

to something like:

dictLanguage.Add "english_mainIndex_7", "<a href='yourlink.asp'>Featured Products</a>"

My home page: http://www.avantagegolf.com/default.asp

I don't want make a link in the expression "featured product" or "Exclusifs " in my case, i want to establish link on title of differents products available in "featured product *module*"

For instance, i wish to make a link in the title on my product: " Fers Cleveland Golf CG GOLD - 5 PW (Graphite)". For the moment, the link for access to the product page is on picture, i would like to make this one on title.

I wish that it's correct, i'm french and i have some difficulties to speak english.

Thank you.

It looks like you already had a developer create your site and make customizations. Your home page is actually default.asp in the root folder of your site. You would just look in that module to see where the code is looping through the featured products and displaying the title and just add your "a href" tags around the title pointing to the same link that is used for the product picture.

Ok, i made the same process in my categories.

But with mainIndex.asp it's different, the process is more complicated.
I will search.

Thanks for your help.
