I have been involved in a price war with a competitor and we end up changing prices twice a week or so. The problem is that I have hundreds of pages of products on my site and the prices are static HTML. Does anyone know of a way I can pull these prices from a text file or database on my site and only have to change them in one place? If anyone knows if this type of script would hurt my SE ranking that would help too.Thanks

Yes, if you aren't using virtual includes you can use a an editor such as Dream Weaver 4 that allows you to "find and replace" code site wide.

Are your pages php enabled? How about SSI(server side include)? If so, then this would be quite doable with a small php/cgi script. Drop me a line. Maybe I can help you.

I think it would be fairly easy to accomplish with SSI's. All you would have to do is change the text in your files, upload the new text files and your pages would change.Try this site for info on SSI: http://bignosebird.com/ssi.shtml

Thanks guys, It worked great! I was actually able to figure out how to do this with two different softwares. Both Frontpage and Dreamweaver have options to use SSI. Although Frontpage seemed to be the easiest to manage it destroys the tables in my site (no surprise there). Dreamweaver makes you create text files for each product we have. Works like a charm. Incidentally my competition looks like he is doing things manually. Does anyone know how search engines treat SSI? Does having dynamic content on your site hurt your ranking?

The includes you can say are rendered and displayed as an "end product". If done correctly this doesn't hurt ranking. On the other hand if you have queries such as that dreaded "?" in your URL you may have problems. Although some SEs such as Google crawl them anyway.[This message has been edited by xelA (edited 07-09-2001).]
