Re: ISBN?  Modified By Steve Fabian  on 2/25/2008 1:32:23 PM

sorry my explanation wasn't clear enough, you're overthinking it.

All I was suggesting was to use the SUMMARY field to store the ISBN number, not delete the SUMMARY text box.

all you would have to do is the following ( assuming you start with a copy of the filelist template )

1. modify form.html to allow the user to enter the ISBN number when uploading an item. Add the text highlighted below..

   <tr style="padding-bottom: 8px;">
     <td align="left" valign="top" width="150">[DNNLABEL:EMail]</td>
     <td align="left" valign="top">[AUTHOREMAIL]</td>
   </tr>
   <tr style="padding-bottom: 8px;">
     <td align="left" valign="top" width="150">ISBN</td>
     <td align="left" valign="top">[SUMMARY]</td>
   </tr>

2. Modify the template.html file so that the value they entered into the SUMMARY field is displayed. Again, just add the text highlighted below..

  <td width="60" class="normal" align="left" valign="top">[FILESIZE]</td>
  <td width="60" class="normal" align="left" valign="top">[SUMMARY]</td>
  <td width="80" class="normal" align="left" valign="top">[DOWNLOAD]</td>

3. Modify the header.html file to add a header for the new column

  <td width="60" class="normalbold" align="left" valign="top">[LABEL:Size]</td>
  <td width="60" class="normalbold" align="left" valign="top">ISBN</td>
  <td width="80" class="normalbold" align="left" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>

That's it, just 3 changes.

you have an error in your form.html file. you just need to find it.

walkthrough your form.html file carefully, look for a missing tag or a tag that's not closed properly, mismatched quotes, anything like that. A good place to look is right after the last item that IS displayed.
