New admin URL-view mod
Tired of always having to copy and paste URLs when modifying/viewing links from the admin interface? Try this mod to make links active:

In db_utils.pl

CHANGE (under build_html_record):

Code:
$output .= qq~
<tr><td align=right valign=top width=20%><$font>$field:</font></td>
<td width=80%><$font>$rec{$field}</font></td></tr>
~;

TO:

Code:

if ($field eq "URL" && $rec{$field} ne "") {
$output .= qq~
<tr><td align=right valign=top width=20%><$font>$field:</font></td>
<td width=80%><$font><a href="$rec{$field}" target="_blank">$rec{$field}</a></font></td></tr>
~;
}
else {
$output .= qq~
<tr><td align=right valign=top width=20%><$font>$field:</font></td>
<td width=80%><$font>$rec{$field}</font></td></tr>
~;
}

CHANGE (under build_html_record_form):

Quote:
else { $output .= qq~<tr><td align=right valign=top width=20%><$font>$field:</font></td><td width=80%><input type=text name="$name" value="$rec{$field}" size="$db_form_len{$field}" maxlength="$db_lengths{$field}"></td></tr>\n~; }

TO:

Quote:
else {
if ($field eq "URL" && $rec{$field} ne "") {
$output .= qq~<tr><td align=right valign=top width=20%><$font><a href="$rec{$field}" target="_blank">$field</a>:</font></td><td width=80%><input type=text name="$name" value="$rec{$field}" size="$db_form_len{$field}" maxlength="$db_lengths{$field}"></td></tr>\n~;
}
else {
$output .= qq~<tr><td align=right valign=top width=20%><$font>$field:</font></td><td width=80%><input type=text name="$name" value="$rec{$field}" size="$db_form_len{$field}" maxlength="$db_lengths{$field}"></td></tr>\n~; }
}

That's all!

(Did you know why you go to edit, the code segments disappear?)
