[SKU]
You would want to change max to 6 and the \5 to \2.As far as the pictures are concerned, the Tearoom tutorial has an explanation of how to do that. You need to have an Has_Picture field and name the picture with a format like SKU.jpg or SKU.gif. All the other text should be enclosed within the first tags.Gary or Grant, I would love an explanation of how this works.Another question! In the WebDNA for the ThankYou.tmpl template that has [email] context there is an exclamation point (!). Gary uses a back slash (\)in his code. What kind of operators are these, HTML or WebDNA? If WebDNA, where are they documented.Jerry Nielsen - commSTRUCT Associates Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
