[zorba]

Hi I am new to actinic and am currently in the process of developing a web page for a friend. He has purchased developer V7, he would like to set up a screen along the lines of :-

Would it be possible to create this using Actinic and if so is it an easy process or quite complex. If possible could this be an automated task or will manul intervention be required.

Any advice info pointers would be most appreciated.

Thanks

I don't think this can be done in an automated way exactly like the site you describe.

What you can do is use 'custom properties' ('Advanced | Custom Properties') to create extra user-definable fields for 'previous price' and 'amount of discount' and then display these as part of the product details. You can read more about custom properties in the main help - go to 'Help | Help Topics' and click on 'Custom Properties' in the 'Contents' tab.

To get a product layout in compact rows, there is some sample code to use in the 'DesignGuide.pdf' available in the 'Starter Guide' folder within 'Actinic v7'. Look at p23.
