department list problem

[jpungar]

Hi,
I am having a problem with the list of departments in a shop that I am working on. The department list comes up fine on the act_primary driven pages but doesn't show on the primarycart page. It is a bit of a pain as I have to up load to test any changes on the primarycart.

I am using the document.write(SectionList(section_tree)); javascript method of displaying the departments, do I need to change this in the primarycart page?

Here is the address to the two pages, so that you can see what I mean:
http://www.tackleworld.co.uk/acatalog/
http://www.tackleworld.co.uk/cgi-bin...CTION=SHOWCART

Thanks for any help if pos'.

Actinic uses several Primary Templates for different parts of the site. The Cart and Checkout ones tend to have limited navigation (to prevent customers from erronously abandoning the checkout, etc).

Look in Design / Options / Layouts / Primary Templates for the ones in use, and add the identical YahooSections code there if you really need it displayed.

PS If you're going to do a lot of deveoping of the Cart and Checkout phases then it may be quicker to install a standalone server on your Actinic (or another LAN) PC. Details of this and all the necessary freeware (Apache, Perl, War/FTPd) is in the Advanced Guide.

Thanks,
I am using the right cart and checkout templates and putting in the section_tree code. The nav bar code in the act_primary and act_primarycart templates has been set the same, but it is not show the sections in the cart.

It did used to when I was using the YahooSection code but this showed all the sub-sections, which I didn't want. Is there a reason why the yahoosections code works but the sections_tree doesn't in the cart?

Not sure. However there are several posts here regarding trimming out the YahooSection code so that it only displays top-level sections.

I'll look them up. Thanks
