categories positioning

I am just setting up my first store ever using CCP but I'd like to have my store categories listed down the left hand side along with the current navigation there with just the specials listed in the centre of the page.

Can this be done and if so how? Is it also possible to do it with a drop down menu?

I look forward to comments and advice from the experieced CCP users of this forum.

Thanks in advance.

Re: categories positioning

Sure can.  Here's an example of a drop down.  Just replace the option values and printed text with what you've got.  The option values are the reference numbers for the categories.

### CUT

<form method="GET" action="cp-app.cgi">

<input type="HIDDEN" name="pg" value="store">
<input type="HIDDEN" name="sub_pg" value="main_cat">

<select name="ref" onchange="submit(this.form)">

<option value="">Select Here</option>
<option value="14">Bath Time</option>
<option value="15">Be Safe</option>
<option value="5">Best Friends</option>
<option value="7">Feeding Time</option>

</option>

</form>

Re: categories positioning

Thanks for this response for advice on a drop down menu but where exactly do I put this code? And what does the ### CUT mean? Do I include this in the code or doeas it mean use code between these points?

Also if I wanted to put my store categories list down the left hand side just as plain buttons how would I do this?

Sorry for being so dim - but I'm a bit of a newbie to all this!

Re: categories positioning

One day you'll be answering posts out here - no worries smile  The ###CUT just signifies that that's where you want to start and stop cutting from the forum post.  Don't grab that, just what's in it.

Place that code wherever you want the drop down box to be within the HTML header or footer.

To link using a button, replace the X's, Y's and Z's below with the appropriate info for your category, domain, image sizes, names, etc.

### CUT - to link to a main category

<A HREF="%%SCRIPT_COMMON_URL%%&pg=store&sub_pg=main_cat&ref=X"><IMG SRC="%%SCRIPT_IMAGES_PATH%%/site/X.gif" BORDER="0" WIDTH="Y" HEIGHT="Z"></A>
