The mgiInlineToken Tag
Tag Behavior
Use the mgiInlineToken tag to append a token to a URL. A token
number can be used as a visitor's unique shopping basket identification.
A token is composed of the visitor's IP number and time interval
so that each token is absolutely unique.
Tag Syntax
The mgiInlineToken tag has one required parameter and three
optional parameters. The tag form is:
<mgiInlineToken url="URL" mode="Mode" pathArgumentName="Name"
pathArgumentValue="Value">
Required Parameters:
- url - The url is the URL to tokenize.
Optional Parameters:
- mode - The mode is the function that the mgiToken
tag performs. In "addTokenOnly" mode, the mgiToken
tag appends the mgiToken path argument and unique token value
to URLs. In "addTokenWithPathArguments" mode,
the mgiToken tag appends the token and all path arguments to
URLs. In "addPathArgumentsOnly" mode, the mgiToken
tag appends all path arguments to URLs. The default value is
"addTokenOnly".
- pathArgumentName - The pathArgumentName is the name
of a path argument that is always appended to tokenized URLs.
If this parameter is not followed by a pathArgumentValue parameter
in the tag, it is ignored.
- pathArgumentValue - The pathArgumentValue is the value
of the specified path argument that is always appended to tokenized
URLs. If this parameter is not preceded by a pathArgumentName
parameter in the tag, it is ignored.
