Flash in Category

Hello,

I am trying to put together a very simple store.

I will only have one category of products to begin with and only nine items within this category.

I am using a flash file (for the category page) to obtain a simple picture "grid" layout, which I could easily accomplish with CSS, but I don't know where I might do this is the Zen Cart scheme.

If anyone strongly urges against using flash (and defeating the useful categories and the images associated with products, functionality of ZC) please indicate how I might accomplish the following layouts.

main page:
Attachment #4439
category page:
Attachment #4440

This what I am doing now:

Embed flash in: define_main_page.php

The flash movie on the page contains a link to the category.

in the SWF link to: /index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1

On the category page I intend to display another flash file which has links to the individual products.

Where do I embed this file?

Thanks for any assistance.

Re: Flash in Category

Have you looked at the Grid Layout option in the Fee Add Ons section?

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Re: Flash in Category

that worked well, thank you.

i cant find the id or class for adjusting the padding or margin or whatever it is doing the spacing, but i'm going in the right direction.

thank you to the author of the addon too.
