Hi David
I am trying to insert the external search into a page given by affiliatefuture for vouchers, the script works OK if i manually but in the Merchant but when I put in <?PHP echo cleandata($merchtarget);?> to get the merchants name nothing happens. I have checked to make sure it pull the correct merchant, is there any way to over come this?
<?PHP
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
include ('inc/functions.php');
connectdata ();
// Page title override.
$config['page_title']=cleandata($merchtarget).' '.$config['page_title'];?>

Hi,
As the page is already in PHP mode at the point where you have added the code to bring in $merctarget there is no need for the PHP tags; and infact they will be breaking the syntax at that point. To fix this, in place of:
$_GET["q"] = "merchant:<?PHP echo cleandata($merchtarget);?>";...have a go with:
$_GET["q"] = "merchant:".$merchtarget;Hope this helps!
Cheers,
David.
