Image Swatching

Does shopsite have image swatching feature? where for example on Moreinfo page there will be thumbnail images of varied colors and when clicked, the Moreinfo graphic will appear.

There is nothing built into ShopSite to do this but you could put the code to do it in the moreinfo text field. You might also have to put some javascript into the template itself to get it to work.

We wrote a web application that does this for our clients. It simply loads images from an xml feed and then using flash 9, writes the images to the more info page. You need to heavily modify the more info page to do this though but you can by getting creative.

You could also go real basic and stick the code for an iframe in your description field and then make a static html file with multiple images on it to link to. Then just don't use the more info images. The latter way is not very efficient as far as time to do but it works and its fairly easy to setup.

Can you give me an example? This is my site: http://www.sportsxgear.com/fox-racing/p ... irline.htm. It should have been better to present it with image swatching right? Thanks in advance for your help.
