Product / layout question?

[arthanus]

Hi guys,

Been playing with the layouts again and seems to be all good now. But as I read earlier in one post "and they're never satisfyied"..:D

Here's my question. I have a product that has multiple sizes to it. I'd like to use 1 image placed into a column to the left and have three columns with the following. So I can list all three sized and add to cart for each product within the one table.

*scratches head..did that come out right?*

Anyway..sorta like this.


image size retail our price add to cart
<pic> s 2.00 1.00 cart button
m 99.00 2.00 cart button


I'm thinking I should be playing with the Act_Productline.html?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

You are correct

You are going to have to get your head around how products work (the Designing with Actinic Guide (http://www.actinicdownloads.com/docs/user_guides/DesigningWithActinicDeveloper.pdf) is invaluable in helping with this), and then create a new product template that lays out two products at once.

The new template needs to have a basic structure the same as the following:<!-- first product begins -->
NETQUOTEVAR:ENDSEPARATOR
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTFORMBEGIN
<tr>
<td rowspan="2">[IMAGE FOR FIRST PRODUCT]</td>
<td colspan="2">[TEXT AND CART BUTTON FOR FIRST PRODUCT]</td>
</tr>
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTFORMEND
NETQUOTEVAR:NEXT
<!-- first product ends -->
<!-- second product begins -->
NETQUOTEVAR:ENDSEPARATOR
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTFORMBEGIN
<tr>
<td colspan="2">[TEXT AND CART BUTTON FOR NEXT PRODUCT]</td>
</tr>
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTFORMEND
NETQUOTEVAR:NEXT
<!-- second product ends -->
