(in lieu of a totally lost emoticon)
I just don't get it.. I tried copying the $products array code from products.php and sticking it into product.php and then alerting smarty to its existence
$smarty->assign("products",$products);
but no luck
well since this is not really as easy as I thought I am just going to build HTML pages with add to cart links and just work on customizing the cart. Thanks for the help though, Emerson and BOOMER. I really appreciate it.
thanks again
