It applies to any system which can execute code. What you're trying to do is a really bad idea--if you could use an [area] or [page] tag, then potentially any ITL code could be run, including stuff like [data userdb password insert_user_id_here]. As of yet, i don't believe there's a way to only interpolate this tag and that tag, and escape all the others. If you wanted to, you could have a related_sku or other such field in the products table, and instead of trying to put the tag in there, have some code like [if-item-field related_sku] [page [item-field related_sku]][description [item-field related_sku]]</a> [/if-item-field] in the flypage. /me _______________________________________________ interchange-users mailing list suppressed http://www.icdevgroup.org/mailman/listinfo/interchange-users
