how to display thumbnails in catalogue listing

Hi,

I’ve created a basic product listing using Ditto, a few TVs and some chunks. The product pages display large product photos. I would like the summary listing to display thumbnail images, but this is turning out to be trickier than I thought it would be. I was hoping to simply insert ".thumb_" in the appropriate place within each main product photo URL to show the thumbnail versions. How is this done in the summary list context where there are multiple products being listed on the page, generated by the Ditto call? (It is simple enough to do it on each product page where there is only a single document’s TVs to deal with, but that’s not much help!)

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I already have the summary listing and main product pages configured. I just need a way of accessing the image TVs and inserting ".thumb_" at the appropriate point to display thumbnails in the product summary lists.

Here is a product summary list page with some dummy products loaded:

Click on a product title to view the product details with the full-size image. What I need is a way to automatically display the thumb version of these pics in the summary list. I can easily do it manually but I don’t want to make the client do that.

Thanks,
Anton
