[Javascript] dynamic product display

[Grinwald, Uri]

That's great Mike and with all due respect I never asked anyone to
contribute in writing the code or anything similar to that end.
What I was looking for was for a reference to the underlying principles
in used to achieve a similar task such as a good reference for let's say
arrays assuming arrays were deeply involved.

Thanks for your help anyways.

While this response may sound a bit abrupt, it was my first thought too.

   Most of the time (IMO) existing scripts are reusable only for the
most basic (and trivial) 
purposes.  They're very helpful for figuring out how something is done
in a general sense, but 
rarely do exactly what you need in your specific environment.  At that
point the decision is to 
hammer an existing script into place, which becomes a great deal of work
to fix when you break 
something you don't understand - or to start from scratch and write your
own script using someone 
else's code for reference.  In my experience, the author's coding (and
thinking) style differs 
enough from my own that debugging inevitable failures is much easier if
I have written the basic 
code to begin with.

   It's unrealistic to expect volunteers on a discussion list to
contribute the code to build a 
whole app, but a specific problem to address seems to get solved very
quickly here.  Do you have a 
[not-quite] working model you could post the URL to?  That might be more
effective. _______________________________________________
