Button creator

There are three different button makers to help you create your hyperlinks! The choice is yours...

mButton

This simple Windows utliity helps create your Buy Now links by generating the HTML code for either a hyperlink or a form button.

It's main advantage is no more cut and paste, just paste... as well as taking up less space on your screen.

It's a stand-alone executable file which requires no real installation. Save it somewhere handy on your hard disk and double click on it to run.

JS Button

The JS Button creator is cross-platform because it is written in Javascript and runs in the browser. It too is designed to help you make hyperlinks that are used to add products to the cart. It can't make form buttons, it uses the "add.cfm" method.

Simply enter your username (userid) and data about the product into the appropriate text boxes and hit "GO". The URL for the product will then appear in the Link Box and you can cut and paste into your HTML editor to make a hyperlink. Some HTML editors have an unfortunate habit of re-writing the URL when it is pasted in. Check the source code of the page.

To use the JS Button creator offline simply save it to your hard disk as a web page. Then open it in your browser whenever you need it.

JS Button with hash field

If you are using the link verification option then there is another version of the JS Button creator which makes and includes the appropriate string. Download that version from within Admin area on the Link Verification page in the setup area.
