How to create "Book Now", "Browse this Category", "More Information", "Check Prices", "Check Availability" links
Index
Overview
This section will demonstrate how to generate "Book Now" url addresses that can be used as links on buttons on web sites. It will also demonstrate how to create "More Information" and "Availability" links as well as "Browse Categories" links.
Important:
Before you can continue you need to have Tour Categories set-up in Respax. See: Using Tour Categories
Also Important:
If you just need the "Book Now" links and will not use Respax as you web page content manager (the tour information and pictures etc.) you DO NOT need to fill in any web details, pictures etc. in the "Tour Categories" section. You just need the structure.
Finding the right page - the "Home/Categories" page
You now have set up a category structure as above and need to find the page to get the links from. The following page/url/link is the top level categories page of Netwizard for the anonymous section. No login required and visible to anyone. This is the standard format of Netwizard URL's for hosted clients:
https://secure2.respax.com.au/DEMO/netwizard/bin/dispatch.php?file=info.info&site=DEMO&config=live
This url is for clients who have Netwizard that is hosted on Trinity Software Australia's servers. If your company host Netwizard on your own servers, ask Respax support for your unique address.
You need to replace the "DEMO" text with your companies organisation code. Examples:
https://secure2.respax.com.au/POP/netwizard/bin/dispatch.php?file=info.info&site=POP&config=live
https://secure2.respax.com.au/FF/netwizard/bin/dispatch.php?file=info.info&site=FF&config=live

VERY IMPORTANT: You need to add this bit of text at the end of the URL to specify that you are working in the live Respax database and that you are on your correct terrain: &site=<your organisation/site code in capitals>&config=live
The whole link will then look something like this:
