hi,
i have unzipped the templates and modified the act_primary.html template and added the image name in curly brackets, but nothing happens??? if you look at
http://www.artimewatches.co.uk/temp/acatalog/A_102.html you can see that the image name is not getting parsed because it appears in the description in the drop down box..
any pointers would be most helpful!!!!!

You've missed this bit from the ReadMe
Add the following code to Act_Primary.html (just above the </HEAD> tag).
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="dynamicimagesupport.js" TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>

hi norman,
i have done that at the beginning!! It is pretty strange because the instructions are fairly straight forward????
any other ideas?? I have even tried raio buttons as well and restored the original actinic templates...

I did a View Source on your page and the line definitely isn't there. Perrhaps you're not using Act_Primary.html for that page.

hi norman,
thanks for the prompt replies....
i have modded a lot of templates for the products... I use Act_ProductBody_men.html for the main section, i use one called Act_ProductBody_menBAK.html for the first sub-sections and then one called Act_Primary_productsmen1thumb.html for the next sub section and product detail... The product layout template is called act_ProductLineLarge.htm.
Which one shall i put it in?
cheers...

Your template naming is a bit confusing.
You can only have one Act_ProductBody.html, so I guess your similarly named ones are, in fact, modified Act_Primary.html Templates.
If so (they'll start and end <html> ...</html>), put the Act_Primary.html code from the readme into
all of them.

Now there are two things wrong.
1) You are putting the following into your Product Template (which puts it in the BODY of the page, rather than the HEAD - this may work but isn't ideal. I've amended the note below to indicate that you need this in all catalogue Primary Templates.
Add the following code to Act_Primary.html [/b]and all other Primarty Templates that you use for product sections (just above the </HEAD> tag).
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="dynamicimagesupport.js" TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>
2) You are using the standard Actinic Variant Templates. You have to unzip this patch into your Site folder to replace these Templates.
I hope you are going to honour the Donationware system.
