hi,

i have a website where my webmaster just implemented oscommerce. i am very pleased with it generaly and am quite impressed with all its features.

the problem is i have no php experiance and limited page making capabilities, so i am very dependant on my webmaster. since the site is already built and paid for most additions need to be paid for so i was hoping to try and do some work my self.

 

when a custmer clicks my link to one of the catagories. there is a list of all product under that category. the way its set up is in rows, each row starts(from the left) with the PRODUCT_IMAGE then PRODUCT_NAME then PRODUCT_PRICE then a 'buy now' button.

this makes for labourious browsing and i want to list all those product and add a section for PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION.

 

how do i add that ? is it possible ? please be as descriptive as possible when answering cuz i am a complete newbie to this.

i do feel quite adventures and am eager to expand my php capabilities.

thnks in advance

Personaly i think all these features NEED to be in the main core as they are quite basic features that are missing. but then again what do i know?

Look in the Contributions section -- I believe it's called "Description in Product Listing." :)

zaxxon did you not get my PM? I have the contribution for this... I tried the ones posted but the code did not match mine and I could never get it to work. I found a gal who emailed it to me and it worked out of the box.
