Dan I think Jim Balcom is giving you some competition in the humor line with his daily tags. Since I am a programmer I especially like this one:

If God wanted us to do Hex we'd have 16 fingers.

You had given me some information which is below for review. I don't believe that is what I need. I will try and formulate a better question but before I do I will check the on-line help. This was just a question I needed answered before I start using interchange. I have not decided yet if I will use it or not. This is one of the questions I need answered before spending a lot of time with it. I am still toying with the idea of programming my own since this will be a a very, very small store and I want it to look totally like a Ma/Pa type store. Nothing extremely fancy and very easy to get around in.

Thanks again and to coin a sign off used by you know who....

HAND,

Terry Cox

(Thanks.  I tend to be the list-clown for some reason.)

I recommend something like:

1. Get a category page built just the way you want it in Interchange.

2. Include it in your other page with Apache directives, ala...

<!--#include
virtual="http://www.interchange_store.com/link_to_category_that_I_want"-
->

However, I may have misunderstood your question.  :^)
