    Default Re: Is this possible ? Two or more product listing layouts (one per category)?

    Hi Glenn,

    I developed an Excel program which allows me to mass upload data to my SQL database. I have an input page which shoots out info to populate the products, products_description and products_to_categories SQL Files. It also includes the category and category_description SQL files.

    Since I like to keep all the categories and sub-categories in alpha/numeric order.., this is a great way of visually seeing them. And since I have a 100 number space between them, I can easily add more categories or sub-categories to them. It also makes it easier to add an image and/or text in the "categories_description" column or add a custom category button image.

    It may sound a little crazy, but I like it.

    As long as you are competent and comfortable manipulating your database directly as you describe, that's great. I would caution anyone else reading this that the approach can easily corrupt your database if you make a mistake, and should not be attempted by anyone but a pro.
