    Default Create FAQ Page using EZ Pages or Define Page?

    I have searched the forum but wasn't able to find something close so I'm opening a new thread. If anyone knows where I can find info. on the following issues, pls. kindly provide a link.

    So here goes, I am thinking of creating a simple FAQ page similar to the Gift Certificates FAQ in the Information sidebox. A list of questions are shown where users can clicked on and the relevant answer displayed somewhere below.

    I wish to display this FAQ link within the Information sidebox.

    My question is, which is the most efficient method of achieving the above-mentioned? EZ pages, Define page or replicate the 'About Us' mod.?

    Thank very much.

    I think your easiest approach would just to make an HTML FAQ (whether you use EZ Pages or Define Pages, the process would be the same) with anchor links at the top to scroll down to each question. Otherwise you start getting into editing weird stuff.. just seems like an awful lot of trouble for one little FAQ.

    help question Re: Create FAQ Page using EZ Pages or Define Page?

    Hi

    I noted that the immediately previous reply refers to anchors. So I have an identical situation, a FAQ page, and I'm almost there but I can't get the html anchors to work - each time I click on the link to the anchor I get back to my Main Page, not the anchor.

    Firstly I copied the page's code from my html editor Adobe GoLive), and tried that. No success. So I tried this in HTML area editor, but I don't think it supports anchors, so I installed FCK editor and tried redefining the anchors and the links, but again each time I click on a link to an anchor I get redirected to my Main Page!!

    Can you advise as to how I might overcome the problem, please? (BTW the anchors work fine in the original HTML code from Adobe GoLive, because I've tested them)

    I think this is due to the base tag -- every link is resolving relative to the site root (or secure site root, depending on the page).

    I ran into the same problem -- if you don't mind using javascript you can use window.location.hash. It seems to do the same thing as the link with the # sign.

    Example:
    <a onmouseup="window.location.hash='faq1'">FAQ question 1</a>
