Integrating Bullseye into Front End - Unix
The Front End is where the user will be able to use Bullseye. Now you are ready to give users access to the database so that they can find the information they are looking for easily. This is where it would be helpful if you knew how to do some basic HTML programming.
Explained below are 2 ways to allow users to search the database.
Link to Dealer Locator Page |
The easiest way is to put a link on your existing site which links to the Dealer Locator Page called search.jsp.
The code would be: <a href="/bullseye/jsp/search.jsp">click here to find a dealer near you</a>
On the page it would appear as "click here to find a dealer near you." (This would be underlined, indicating a link) When a user clicks on this link it would bring them to the search.jsp page which will have the search form on it. |

Include the Search Engine at your Web Site
|
The second way would be to integrate the search engine right onto an existing page at your web site.
To do this, you will need to copy the search code and paste it into the position on the page that you would like it to be.
Included in your Bullseye PRO was a text file called code.txt. Open this file and copy the code that appears under Bullseye PRO Locator Code. Click here to see the Locator Code below
Paste this into the page and you are ready to go. Make sure that you have enough room on the page to fit the locator.
