Another idea...if you are really adventuresome...you can create one ASP page to replace the Featured Products, Best Sellers, New Arrivals and Specials pages. The pages are almost identical except for the SQL code used to generate the list of products. Then just pass a querystring to the new ASP page to show which products you want to display and use the query string to determine which SQL code to use. The advantage of this is that you can define the page navigation and custom view of products on one ASP page vs. 4 pages. That makes managing changes much simpler.

If you want to see a sample of this, check out www.poshera.com and look at the hyperlink for any of the 4 pages on the left navbar that I mention above. They all use the same page to display products and just pass in the pagetype. The top and bottom navigation use a subroutine so the code isn't duplicated which makes any changes easier to manage.

For any of the list pages where you want to add paging at the top, the best bet is to look for code like the following which leaves some blank space after the breadcrumbs on the top of the page:

[
<tr>
  <td><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="15" alt=""></td>
</tr>
]

Add a new table row right after this section and then put your page navigation in that new row. Remember that you need to change the name of the ASP page from the sample code to use the page you are working on, i.e. viewcat.asp, viewCat_Brands.asp, etc.

If you are pretty comfortable with ASP, we actually recommend creating a generic PageNavigation subroutine with all the parameters you need and put it in an include file. (We pass the URL and the total record count.) Then include that file in any page where you want to have page navigation and just call the subroutine at the top and bottom of each category or product list.

We didn't develop this application. So we are still learning how to use it ourselves too. It's a shame if you can't post ASP code. Did you try this?

Rich Text Editor (WYSIWYG) posting issues

If you are using Internet Explorer 5+ (windows only), Netscape 7.1, Mozilla 1.3+, Mozilla Firebird 0.6.1+, and if the forum administrator has enabled it you should have a Rich Text (WYSIWYG) Editor to type your messages with. If you find that you are having problems posting using the WYSIWYG editor then you can disable this WYSIWYG Editor by simply editing your profile and selecting to turn off the WYSIWYG Posting Editor.

Maybe it helps.
