inserting java menu in subcategory pages

I have a lot of subcategory pages to reach a product page. The number of clicks to arrive to the product is too long for any potential customer.

I found a solution to shorten the navigation process implementing java graphic menus inside hotspots of mapped images, but... when introduced inside the subcategories.tpl (with or without {literal}{/literal}) file didn't work. The menu and graphics works fine separately if they are inside a normal test html page but as soon as it is introduced in the smarty tpls system fails to load the java program in the browser.

Maybe I am doing something wrong regarding the subdirectories in which I am placing the java files or the graphics associated. Where should be located? Maybe I should place the java applet code in different tpl files?

Is there any idea to help

Does the JavaScript require code placed in the <head> of the page? If so, you need to put that in customer/home.tpl.

Thanks Balinor,

Finally everything works fine when I moved the java files to the xcart directory and did the calls directly in the categories description box with html tags.

Maybe that helps to many others
