Can I extend the numbers of characters allowed in the listbox text under "Confirmation Page Setup (Before Payment)"? This customer has terms they want users to agree to and the listbox truncates about half of the agreement. Another way that might work is to direct to an agreement page and then force the checkmark (might be less desirable) ?? By the way, I am also requesting the customer to revise their terms to shorten them if at all possible. I don't think the legal team will shrink considering the work invested in generating the terms.

Answer - Yes if you open up the confirm.ascx page located in the \desktopmodules\smith.buynow folder and go to line 241 you can increase the height and width property of the label control that has your terms and conditions in it.

<asp:Label ID="txtPDLBText" runat="server" Height="100px" Width="450px"/>

if you open up the settings.ascx page located in the \desktopmodules\smith.buynow folder and go to line 1037 and change the "MaxLength" property (highlighted in yellow) to enough characters needed for the terms and conditions you are adding

<asp:TextBox runat="server" TextMode="multiLine" MaxLength="400" ID="txtConfLBText" Rows="8" Columns="100" Width="395px"/>

How many characters are you trying to save in the terms and conditions and how many characters is the cart allowing after truncation?

Any progress on finding a solution to expanding the listbox text?

I've modified the TabModuleSettings value to be nvarchar(4000). It made no difference. The listbox within the buy.now settings is still limited to the same length. Is there something else I need to do?

Wouldn't adding it to the confirmstatus.ascx page display the terms and conditions after purchase? This would not allow someone to choose not to purchase if they disagree with the terms. Can we add the mod before they pay?

Edit: Another thought. Modifying the .ascx files would affect all buy.now modules wouldn't it? I am wanting to run independent buy.now modules with different terms.

I am running into this issue now too, was there ever an elegant solution? I'm ok with putting in an HTML box and just having the user click the check box (required), doesn't have to be anything fancy.

Thanks for any suggestions.

EDIT

Ok what I have decided to do is just include an href to our T&C page, which works well in Firefox, but I can't see the link in Internet Explorer.

I have the following code (carrots used so code doesn't work)  ^a href="page"^Terms and Conditions^/a^

How does this not work for IE? Any ideas? I have attached what I see in IE. It looks like a box or something is trying to form, but no dice

I have not been able to fix this.

I am wondering what the option under General Cart Setup -> Insert Custom Checkout Page URL does. It says it inserts it after the Step 2 checkout page, so I'm wondering if I can just create a page with terms there and put a checkbox that needs to be ticked (using a form). If this is before they submit payment then this would work great!

If you could let me know where exactly in the order process this page would go I might be able to use this as a work around.
