1. The rollovers are simple enough to do as eZ publish can output your links in whatever format you want. As there are a ton of different ways to create rollovers, and this isn't a JavaScript forum I will assume you already have your JS set up, or will find some on a JavaScript or CSS forum. On the eZ publish side I would recommend that you look at the standard templates as they show how to output the links. You can then plug your rollover code into those templates. So for example, you might have the following bit of code in your eZ publish template: <a href={concat("content/view/full/",$:item.node_id,"/")|ezurl} onmouseover="Rollover Code">{$:item.name|wash}</a>
2. Check out the Shuffle Operator under the Contributions area. I have found it to be extremely useful.

If so, I would recommend you set each product up using the Product class and place them into a folder. The Product class automatically provides the content and image fields for each product, and the folder will provide you the main text to talk about the special. You could also ddo this with an Object Relations List should you wish. A little more information on what you want to do with the special will allow us to provide a better recommendation. If you go with a product/folder combination it is likely that you will want to create override templates based either on the <i>Class</i>, or the <i>Node ID</i> of the folder. Check out the Override documentation for more info: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/customization/custom_design/override_templates Alex
