Customize your settings
The widget and RSS feed URL may be customized by changing or adding parameters to the URL provided:
| Parameter name | Values | Description |
|---|---|---|
| nb | 1..10 | number of elements returned |
| item | 0..5 | (widget) first item from the list to be displayed |
| region | de,gb,fr,es,nl,at,ch | region (country) for advertiser targeting |
| ip | IPv4 address | IP address of visitor for region guessing |
| programs | up to 20 comma separated programs id's | Restrict result to selected programs |
| delay | 0..6 | Time to wait for answer, keep empty for default value. If retry=1, total wait time is (delay*5s ), if retry is 0 or not set, total time is (delay*5s)*2 |
| retry | 0/99 | Disable auto-retry feature by setting to 99; Default (empty/zero) enables auto-retry. |
| category | (valid category name) | Restrict results to given category |
| kw | keywords, '+' separated | keywords for product matching |
| min_price | integer | minimum product price (leave empty for none) |
| max_price | integer | maximum product price (leave empty for none) |
| imgh | integer | product image height (leave empty for original size) |
| imgw | integer | product image width (leave empty for original size) |
Example: to get a 3 products widget for keyword 'usb speaker' with a minimal price of 5€ (France) and a product image height of 100 pixels, we would use the following URL:
http://produx.novaclic.com/widget.php?connectid=D565D4B44A7910783CDE&kw=usb+speaker®ion=fr&min_price=5&nb=3&imgh=100
Display your products
This simpliest way to display your products is to add an Iframe to your web page and insert the Produx widget inside the iframe. Here is the sample code of the Produx demo page:
<IFRAME src="http://produx.novaclic.com/widget.php?connectid=D565D4B44A7910783CDE&adspace=661572®ion=de&min_price=15&max_price=&ip=&kw=iphone&nb=5&delay=0" width=600 height=150 scrolling=no frameborder=0 allowTransparency="true"> </IFRAME>
If you wish to use the PRODUX RSS feed, you will need a RSS feed parser. You'll find sample code on google for PHP and ASP.
