texte = Make a field like subcat. The catagory would be shirts and the subcat would be like Devils Team Jersey you would have 1-20 shirts with a subcat of Devil Team Jersey , all with different SKUs Each SKU gets its own size/color combo. When doing your origional search you use SUBCATsumm=T then on the detal page and shopping cart page, you do a search for all size/color combos with that sku. Now you get the appearance of 1 product with many choices, when there are actually many products being show all with different sku.If you want to be really brave, you can actually have 1 product listed in your database and a relational datbase of size color combos. I only suggest this if you are fluent with database design and implementation.Brian Boegershausen WebCatalog Programmer www.orderbywire.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Brady J. Horenstein
