In my theme "Retro", i noticed that the Actinic supplied Act_Primary.html and Act_BrochurePage.html, are different in that one has "View basket" and "Checkout" and one does not.
Is there anything wrong with moving to the Brochure pages during a Catalogue View or Shop ?
Curious ?
Thanks, Simon.
P.S. this includes the script for showing Basket Quantity and Value too?

There is nothing wrong, it was just designed that way. The Primary.html uses FOOTERGUIDE while the BrochurePrimary.html uses HEADERGUIDE, these are restrictive to specific functionality areas.
If you down load a copy of the Advanced Users Guide and take a look on page 14, you will see the following.....
There is a NETQUOTEVAR for each separate navigation button in the navigation bar. These can be used instead of the restrictive NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERGUIDE and NETQUOTEVAR:FOOTERGUIDE and they can be used in Act_Primary, Act_BrochurePrimary, Act_Header and Act_Footer.
These new placeholders use Act_NavigationItem.html as the template to place the navigation button correctly into the HTML.
To use them, simply place any of the following placeholders in the templates mentioned above.
Button Placeholder
Search button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBSEARCH
Checkout button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCHECKOUT
Cart button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCART
Email button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBMAIL
SiteMap button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBSITEMAP
Info button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBINFO
Up button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBUP
Back button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBBACK
Catalog button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCATALOG
Home button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBHOME
Login Button NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBLOGIN
If you prefer, you can just use the URL of each navigation button as part of your own custom navigation control. To do this simply add the word 'LINK' onto the end of any of the above variables, and place them within an <a> tag. For instance:
<a href="NETQUOTEVAR:NAVBCARTLINK">. . .</a>
…will create a link to the shopping cart.
