    Hello.

    We are a team of designers who have recently discovered Modx, hopefully it will free us from having to pay hosting for an expensive Content Management system.

    We have built a simple website, but there is some functionality which we would like to improve.

    The test link is here:

    http://85.234.152.247/lgwww/index.php?id=5

    You can see that we have a left and right arrow to the right of the main image, for people to flick through work examples.

    Currently this left / right arrow uses some javascript called ’paginate’ We load all the examples in to one document in Modx, and use the Javascript to show each one. This makes for quite a long document, and if we want to add lots more examples, it’s going to get more difficult to manage. Also some IE versions show errors on the Javascript and we can’t seem to track it down. We would rather not use this javascript, but use Modx functionality instead.

    What we would like would be the left right arrows to cycle through child documents in a section, each example of our work being it’s own document.

    We know some CSS but not much good at php.

    We have seen Ditto and think perhaps that might be the answer, but we are not sure how to go about applying it in this instance.

    Any ideas / suggestions welcome!
