Well, I have a catalog with different colorcodes for each item. For example, if the viewer
choose Red, then the colorcode=3 or if the viewer choose white, colorcode=0. I need the
colorcode in the flypage.html to display the image based on the chosen color.

When I put the tag [value colorcode] in my results page, it shows correctly.
However, when I use [page href="[item-code]" arg="[value colorcode]"], I always get to "Sorry,
we are still under construction!" page. The link shows like
this:http://www...com//cgi-bin/mcdonald/Style-5120?czPz6J49;3;1536. In this, 3 is the
colorcode.

Any ideas why it happen?
