Can I remove the links in GAL?

[1996 328ti]

I just installed GAL primarily to be used for as a glossary.
I have tried # and blank for the url but still redirected to a blank page.

Also Active doesn't appear to work.
I have DB cache on.

Make sure it isnt in a category set to track clicks.

ok - the most liekly reason why this is happening is that you may not be using the updated replacements listed in the readme. Saying that - I was just playing around with them and while they are an imrpovement, I have found an ever beeter way of doing it. Ill updated the package in the next release to include a hover no link group however in the meantime, try this:

In your Main CSS, add the following:

PHP Code:

span.gal {
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #4D528C;
color : #4D528C;
padding:0 0 0 12px;
background:url(images/misc/exlinkon.gif) no-repeat 0
}
span.gal:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
border-bottom: 0px dotted #009933;
color : #009933;
padding:0 0 0 12px;
background:url(images/misc/exlink.gif) no-repeat 0;
} 


The in your admincp-> gal section, go to replacements and add the following replacement:
title: Popup with no link

PHP Code:

<span class='gal' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,"$gal_offset", $gal_width, "$gal_box_style", "$gal_description", "$gal_description_style");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>$gal_text</span> 


Then add a new category to use this replacement OR edit a current category and set it to use this replacment.

Then click maintenence->debug->rebuild

That shoudl sort you out

I added it, (not replace).
Added the additon CSS code.

What happens now is that the highlighted word is repeated.
And it links to itself. That is I can still click on the word.

Are you sure you rebuilt and that there are not duplicates?

The replacement for popup with no title

<a href='$gal_link' target='_blank' class='gal' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,"$gal_offset", $gal_width, "$gal_box_style", "$gal_description", "$gal_description_style");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>$gal_text</a>

<span class='gal' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,"$gal_offset", $gal_width, "$gal_box_style", "$gal_description", "$gal_description_style");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>$gal_text</span>

When I hit rebuild
Find

#((\s|<li>|<span class="highlight">|<strong>|<b>|<i>)\b(CAI)s?\b)#im

Rebuild

<a href='#' target='_blank' class='
gal
' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,"1", 300, "style=\"border: 1pt solid #000000;\"", "Cold <!--GAL-->Air <!--GAL-->Intake", "style=\"background: #FFFFCC;padding: 2px;font-size: 10px;\"");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'><!--GAL-->$1</a> <span class='
gal
' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,"1", 300, "style=\"border: 1pt solid #000000;\"", "Cold <!--GAL-->Air <!--GAL-->Intake", "style=\"background: #FFFFCC;padding: 2px;font-size: 10px;\"");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'><!--GAL-->$1</span>

CAI is the word I am using in the glossary.

Edit:
This is interesting.

'I just installed my Cosmo CAI CAI today...'
If I click on the first CAI I generate a new page.
If I click on the 2nd, it works as you would expect. No link.
But CAI should only be there once.

Any luck with the double words?

Not yet however I have found the cause and ALMOST have it sorted. Its all pretty much waiting on a new regex which is beyond my ability. I have posted on a couple other sites but havent gotten too far yet (makes me think Im on the cutting edge with this regex!)

FIngers crossed I may have a solution tonight!
