(Miva 4.x OpenIU)
Does anybody know how to put a link to the ACNT page within html code...
without having the http://...?
I would like to place a link in a header, which would sometimes be secure,
sometimes not secure, and don't want to produce an error 'this page contains
both secure & non-secure items'.

Sorry to post to this group, but I am having technical difficulty w/ the
older 4 users group.

Thanks.
Wendy

Wendy,

<a href="%VAR(g.secure_sessionurl)%Screen=%IF(NOTLOGI N)%LOGN%ELSE%
ACNTF%IFEND%">

or you can use the newer %url_account% and %url_logout% tokens.

Hope this helps...

I just noticed that I had an extra "F" in there by mistake. Take the
"F" out on "ACNTF%". Other than that, should be good to go. Don't
forget to put "%OUI%" at the top of all your code that uses OpenUI
tokens.

You can also get more creative by using %IF statements... this
allows you to show your customer one thing if say they are not logged
in and another thing if they are logged in. (like a welcome message)
