[Archon-L] Archon - display of collection id

[Chris Prom]

John,

You'll need to edit the file or files archon/templates/default 
(or whatever template you are using)/controlcard.inc.php and/or 
collection.inc.php to include a reference the ID field.  You can 
add whatever HTML you want to files to label the filed--the 
important point is that you put in a reference to the ID object, 
like this, buried in your HTML.

<?php echo($objCollection->ID); ?>

You can use the rest of the HTML and PHP in the files as a guide 
for how to do this. Please let me know if you need any more help 
with it.

Thanks,

Chris
