Make the picture an href to the page you want it to go to like the following:

<a href="http://www.mydomain.com/store/product40.html"><img src="http://www.mydomain.com.com/store/media/myimage.jpg" alt="click here" width="100" height="100" vspace="3" hspace="3" border="0" ></a>

Note that it is usually just a single click to go to an href not a double click.

You would need to put code similar to what I posted where ever you want the picture to be. This could be in a page text field, product text field, shopping cart text field, or you can put it in a template and pull the data for the image and the link to the page it goes to from the ShopSite database fields.

If you edit one of the product templates and look at the code that creates links to the moreinformation page section that is how this would be used.

See my post just above your last one for where you can put the html. You might want to do a web search on "html image links" to find more tutorials on how to do this. I found one example at http://www.w3schools.com/HTML/html_images.asp

Note: I would strongly recommend that you do not include your email address or mail address in posts. There are lots of spammers out there who scan forums and newsgroups for email addresses and then share them with other spammers. So you end up getting lots of spam.

Sounds like a more info page setup is what you maybe after right?

Look into creating a more info page in your product setting in your back office.

here is the deal. I have 33 NFL Logs. I want to click on the Giants Logo and go to a page that has 20 different Giants logo watches to pick from. Then I want to click on a watch and see an enlarged picture with price and all information on that one watch.

So its both, a regular html image link to a page with products that each have a more info page..

Ok,

1. You will need to create your 33 pages, using your PAGE TEMPLATE. Make sure you give them a unique name, "NFL-Patriots.html" etc...

2. Create and enter each product as you would normally would in the back office, using you PRODUCT TEMPLATE ... but now adding the additional information in the More information section of the products. Ie. create more information page, more information graphic, more information text etc and publish.

3. Assign all your "patriots" and other teams items products to their correct team page.

once all items are inputed and assigned to their correct pages, youll need to make some kind of table with 33+ table cells each with a small graphic of each team and apply all the "<a href" information i gave you in the Pms to each image linking to each team page with the unique name.


Try reading up a little on how the more information pages work, the shopsite help is full of useful information to help you with your site



Good Luck :)

We have found out that the reason we could not make this work is that Ipower.com has our directories hidden. We had this problem with them early on, and it seems that while they unhid what was there, anything new is hidden automatically. As such, our site works fine, but we can't call some of our pictures by the URL and therefore can't use the URL in the text of the HTML we are using. We also can't use FTP to back up the whole site, since some is hidden. In their effort to help, they just hid the whole store directory, and needed to escalate the matter. Is it usual to have the store directory hidden from FTP on other ISP's?
