texte = I just worked on a site just like this.The way I achieved this was to create another field called something likePRODUCT_ID. Then the Products editing page automatically writesthe first few (appropriate) characters to this field when a new productis added.The way this works is that all your results and detail pages use thePRODUCT_ID field for displaying. The products.db also containsa default graphic so that you have an add for a product rather thana specific color and size. Important to note also is that you doyour results with a SIZEsumm=T (and perhaps a COLORsumm=Tperamiter so that you only have a single product result.Once a customer has chosen a size and color then a searchcan be done (using PRODUCT_ID, COLOR, and SIZE)to find the exact product SKU that is wanted before usingthe [addlineitems] command.I would give you an URL but I don't know if my client wouldlike that or not.hope this helps,DonovanClint Davis wrote:> Listmates,>> Happy Friday the 13th!>> I'm sure my question has been covered before, but I'm in a serious time> crunch, and I need some quick pointers to get a new store up and running.> So, bear with me please.>> My client has several types of products to sell including t-shirts.
