Product detail page makeover

We have been using tabs for a while to provide information on the product detail page. It worked quite well but was always dogged by the fact that it didn't show all of the available information including useful information from suppliers.

See below for an annotated description of the page. Your feedback is appreciated so we can improve the quality of the information presented to you.




UPDATE
We have added a short and long supplier detail view:

Choose between 'Helpline View' and 'Full view'.

Helpline View - brief contact information

Local Retailer information now available

We have just added local retailer information to the database. If you want to find who supplies AT equipment in or near your town or within your county then use the search box to get a list.

What do you think about having the ability to update this information yourself or add new retailers?

UPDATE - 26th July 2007
The product detail page has been revised and you can now click through to the Retailer search. Be warned that the search by town doesn't always produce a result, however you can usually get a decent list from the Regional search.













As ever if you have any questions please get in touch.

Go faster with DLF Data...

Go Faster stripes...
We're making a few changes to DLF Data and its servers to speed everything up to provide a quicker page download time and to simplify the Product Detail page.

Our target is to make sure that web pages are downloaded to your screen in 4 seconds or less. Of course there are all sorts of things that can get in the way of this but we've tested it lots and reckon that the bigger product detail pages which used to take 8 - 10 seconds in the past now take 2.5 - 3 seconds.

Why do this?
As ever we want to make the service we provide as good as it can be by bringing together the information you need and putting it all in one place. Fast!

How can you help?
Lots of ways. We always encourage feedback to our devteam@dlf.org.uk email address or you can leave comments on this blog.
