    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="https://forum.productcart.com/member_profile.asp?PF=1234">cmason</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 2055<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 27-December-2008 at 4:38pm<br /><br />I've done something similar with bringing forward addt'l images and descriptions from the category page. Am in the midst of doing it again for V3.5 upgrade to a store.  Easiest way is to pick which viewProdX.asp page you're using then embed the query and display. <br /><br />Example - I added this to viewPrdL.asp below where it calls pcs_Additional Images (note we also keep our images in different folders according to size and these are images from a different table linked by idCategory)<br />  <br />..Pasting the code didn't work so I'm trying it as an upload file ..<br /><a href="uploads/1234/code.txt" target="_blank">code.txt</a><br /><br />What's difficult to believe is that it's more difficult to manage the placement of the buttons.  I did it but I don't remember where.<br /><br />This is an image of the work in progress.  What appear to be additional images are the images pulled from the above query.  The bullet points for the detailed description are picked up from the category.  Options, specification etc are all in tables linked by the idCategory, not idProduct. Just filter for "idCategory = "& pIDCategory "<br /><br /><img src="uploads/1234/screen2.gif" border="0" />]]>
