Will WebCat work this way?Yes. Just make sure each Buy Now link has the proper webdna parameters in it, so the correct item gets added to the shopping cart.>In the manuel it seems like its designed to work with a separate graphic (or no graphic at all) per product.That's just an example, although a very common one. But from what you've said, I see no reason you cannot do it your way just as well. It's probably a different technique than most people use, but the images do not affect the way webcatalog works.>I have sites I've designed with softwares such as Adobe PageMill, Adobe ImageReady, Dreamweaver, Photoshop etc. I had thought that Webcat could run on top of Webten and beneath the pages I'd made, so to speak. Does it work in this way?No, I don't think so -- but I don't really understand what you're trying to say either ...>And if so, where do I find info on how to tie it in?Once you create a web page with a page layout program, then you can add your webdna tags manually. Always remember, to be safe you should NOT edit any webdna page using your page layout program AFTER you've started adding webdna tags. In other words, if you plan to use a page layout program, do it FIRST. Then make changes to those pages by editing them directly in a text editor, such as Tex-Edit or BBEdit.>If there are sources for basic newbie and really starting to panic here type questions I am used to studying like mad till I get up to speed but . . .It sounds like you may need to gain a stronger conceptual understanding of HTML and the way the web works first -- before jumping into webcatalog. Webcatalog's functional foundation is based on is HTML, so you need to understand HTML concepts very thoroughly ...Sincerely, Ken Grome 808-737-6499 WebDNA Solutions mailto:ken@webdna.net http://www.webdna.net Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
