If anyone needs to display product variants to a customer (Available sizes, colors, etc.), then I have a small bit of code that will do just that.

It will also grab the {$v.class} which will display a title (Like color or size) and can easily be modified to your liking. It also has the smarty variable that doesn't display an item for the last array object (ie. a comma). There's an image screenshot of a sample I tested with 4.1.9. It should work with 4.1.x versions of X-Cart.

It will display multiple variables and display them for all available product variants (ie. 1. Colors and 2. Sizes).

In product.tpl, find the 'Product Details' table:

<tr><td colspan="2"><b><font class="ProductDetailsTitle">{$lng.lbl_details}</font></b></td></tr>

Then just add this as an additional row, modify etc.

{foreach from=$product_options item=v}
<tr>
    <td width="120" align="left" valign="top" class="ProductPriceConverting">Available {$v.class}s:</td>
    <td valign="top">

{include file="modules/Product_Options/check_options.tpl"}

{foreach from=$v.options item=o name=variants}
    {$o.option_name}{if $smarty.foreach.variants.last}&nbsp;{else},{/if} 
{/foreach}
    </td>
</tr>
{/foreach}

Let me know if it can be improved or how you modified it's use with additional functionality. You may need to remove my use of the word "Available <Class>s:" and can better title the variants using the v.class itself. This is just an easy way to say 'Available Colors:" and so forth.

Probably a wildshot but can you get this to run in the standard products listing in a category, possibly just under the short description?
