No bother. I dont mind helping those who try.. no matter how big my stick sounds.

1.) I think you mean a slide show for a rotator.. what you need to do is find a slideshow script like on www.dynamicdrive.com and then copy and paste the codes into a text element in the HTML view, and then fix it to show your pictures and the picture names.

2.) To make a link in the text editor.. Type in the Words you want linked. hilight them.. then click the CHAIN looking icon.. looks like two chain links.. then you can fill in how and what you want the link to do.

Re: How to Import Rotator in my PRODUCTS page.

Thank you very much Karen!!!

It was great help about the linking- (2)
However, - (1) didn;t wotk. I tried to copy and paste as it was described in the website you gave me, but probably i do not have FF1 or IE5 or Opr7. I even do not know what does these 3 abreveations mean?
It is written in next to each DHTML features, that i have to have these FF1+ IE5+ Opr7+ things.

What i did actualy was- go to the website you gave me, i chose one slide show called Drop-in image slideshow, so i typed in my HTMl format in the TExt editor box of one of my pages, <head> and then pasted the rest of the head script, then i typed </head>. After that i typed <body> and pasted the rest of the srcipt. Then see how i fixed the pictures, i do not knwo if it is right.
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
//Define Image Array. Syntax: ["image_path", "url_destination", "url_target"]
var myimages=new Array()

//Create new drop-in slideshow

new dropinslideshow(myimages, 200, 250, 3000)
</script>
</body>
So , after going to preview it just disappears. Then i copied it again and tried again and again, but all the time, the scrip dissapears if i go to the text or preview.
Can you help me with this? Should i download something else in order to not have it disappearing?
Thank you very much in advance,for your great help !

Re: How to Import Rotator in my PRODUCTS page.

Ok.. where the script says.. to download the slideshow.js. you have to download that and then ftp it to your store, and then change this part

See in red i changed it? thats what you need to do to make it work..

And then this part

will look more like this

instead of using photo1 you would use the actual name of one of your pictures like: bulgarianite.jpg

and the _blank or _new, would make it open in a new window if you wanted it to, or it could open in _self or _parent as well.

Hi Karen,
Wowww you know so many things. Thank you for helping me. I appreciate it very much. Without people like you we the new commers will be lost.
I made evrything you said to me, however, still it doesn't work.
I pasted evrything to HTML view in my Text editor, which is inside soho, part of drop down menu, but after i paste it to HTMl view and click to EDIT or PREVIEW section it just disappears. Everything dissaperas. And if i go back to HTML view it is not there anymore. Also, i watched the tutorials about adding a text / HTML. I see that the frame in the tutorial is different from mine. In mine you just see EDIT, HTML PREVIEW and SAVE. In their's you see UPDATE TEXT, CANCEL UPDATE, HTML VIEW and EDIT VIEW.
Would this be the reason that my text put in HTMl view dissapears after i click on any other button? Even i give Preview website it gives me my template , my buttons and a blank page.

I am sorry to asking you so many times for one question, but i realy do not know how to fix this.
Thank you very much.

Make sure your soho launch is updated to the latest version, and then go to the help icon and click the it tab, and fix the permissions. It will tell you how to do this once you get there. If you cant find it.. put in a support ticket to have it done for you.

Re: How to Import Rotator in my PRODUCTS page.

HI KAren,
I was trying to enter here for 3 days, however i couldn't send a replay. I do not know why, but now here i am.
Thank you for the information, untill i was waitting for the update of my soho i found another way of putting my pictures into my website, which is www.turbobulgaria.com
So, i hope it will not slow my website down!
However, my clock and dates do not work, if i put themon text editor. Should i take a clock script from the page you gave me and paste the HTML into my HTML editor?
Thanks
Inna
