RM 2.28 questions Can't Post

I'm making a valiant attempt at upgrading RM from 2.13 to 2.28 and had some questions about the features indicated in the chagelog.
The $listing_num$ field: How is it generated/stored/ultilized? and how does it differ from $l_field$?
How can the search view an individual listing?
How does check_created work?

P.s. Anyone find an easy way to create a print version of listings yet?
Thanks SO MUCH in advance. Fred

Hi Fred

To print listings/homepages just add this line of code onto the page but within a form:

<form>
<input type="button" value="Print This Page" Onclick="print()" ;>
</form><p><hr size=1 width=590>

regards

Dean

Thanks for your response Dean, but that is not what I am looking to achieve. What I'm looking for, is a way to create a printable version of the listing data to a new .html page.

Hi Fred,

I wrote a post with the steps to create a customized printer friendly page and to link to it. My example is based on using Auto Manager but the steps are the same with Realty Manager.

Here is the link: http://www.interactivetools.com/forum/forum.cgi?post=5356#5356

Here is info about your other questions:

>The $listing_num$ field: How is it generated/stored/ultilized? and how does it differ from $l_field$?
The $listing_num$ refers to the listing number that is assigned to the listing by the program. For example here is the URL to listing number 3:
http://www.yoursite.com/rm/listings/l0003.html
The listing fields, $lfieldX$, are used to identify and publish the specific listing details for each listing. For example: Address, MLS#, City State, Price etc.

>How can the search view an individual listing?
You can have the search engine view an individual listing be adding the listing number to the search query. Here is an example:
http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/rm/exec/search.cgi?view=$listing_num$

>How does check_created work?
By adding the "check_created" field to the _search_query.html template, only the original listing created date will be searched instead both the original created date and the last modified date. An example of adding this to the _search_query.html template is:
<input type="hidden" name="check_created" value="1">

Here is a link to the "Configuring Search Engine" section of the Realty Manager Manual for additional reference: http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/doc.cgi?/realtymanager/doc_page7.html

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Cheers
