Had a look, closed and re-entered to make sure any cache was present, still took around 28secs.....same when using back button on browser(Firefox). Site looks nice tho!!!! Did you mod all the templates yourself?

Say you wanted to list all the products for that category (the one your FAQ is referencing) on that page. Any idea on how that would be done?

Thank you. Can't claim i did. The look is from Crystal Blue Skins (compliments of the addon i puchased from x-cart) and the theme is "education". I am not sure who is educating who but it looks OK. I really didn't like the standard skin. But still, the shop required a lot of buggerising around with templates to add all the other mods i had to do. And x-cart has changed something with the code syntax like with embedding images etc. I haven't uploaded all changes yet as i am using uniform server and a copy of the shop on a local machine because it was just too slow to work with the real site. I am now trying to figure out how to do all my updates by ODBC. It is so much faster than the CSV import. Thanks again NetRegistry. I would have not bothered, cut my losses and run if i had to do all the work on the live site. Still thinking of doing that anyway.

I noticed in the manual that RRF is saying x-cart is open source. Makes it very interesting.

Cheers,

vipstore.....
not quite sure what you mean
"list all the products for that category (the one your FAQ is referencing) on that page"
The FAQ menu pages are just php pages. The components/findings menus on the other hand is actual caregories. Did you want to know how eg the Swarovski products were generated in that menu?

guess my question wasn't framed right...

let's say you wanted to display actual products on your faq (for instance) page (pulled from a particular category), & not just the category names...am wondering how that might be done on a static page such as this...

nice site, though!

[vixnfox]
