I got an FTP bad login error and something about javascript/ directory permissions on clicking your site. Though that appears to have nothing to do with this issue.

Yes, I had this once on that site - I made a note that it said "Cannot write to the file javascript/menu! You must chmod it to 666." I had a brief look but couldn't see a menu at that time. When I refreshed I did not receive the error.
I have just looked into the javascript directory and see there is a file called menu (no extension) - I changed it from 644 to 666. What is this file?
However, when it saved it it flashed up with an error message, too quick for me to read but I think it is the same thing and a problem with writing to the javascript folder
edit: I have just set this up on another site and it is working fine. On the britishdogbreeders.co.uk site I have chmod directory - 666 so have changed this to 755 and it appears to be ok. Not sure why it was 666 - I'm sure I checked this before!

In the displaylinks template I have...
<div align="center"><br />
<img src="download.php?catid={CATID}&field=photoattach" alt=" Photo of {CATNAME} "><br />
</div>
<IF {CATPHOTOCREDIT}>
<div align="center"><font size="1">Photo: {CATPHOTOCREDIT}</font></div>
</IF>
</IF>
This works very well except for one category! http://www.britishdogbreeders.co.uk/book-shop/
The photoattach field for this category is empty and as it works ok on all other cats, plus other sites, I am at a loss!

Do you have any ideas on my conditional problem?

It probably happens every 12 hours when the javascript files are written. What do you have on your javascript page?
No idea about the conditional. Does it work if you use {CATPHOTOATTACHFILENAME} instead?

Where do you mean when you say javascript page?
This site is a mirror for the set up of www.thedogscene.co.uk, just different data.

I fixed this - I attached a photo then deleted it!

ok - looking into it more I have no idea what I did when setting this up!!
I have now changed the javascript to :
javascript_export_menu|categories,name,50,ascending,parent='0',,,0,0,0,0,0,0
However, when it saved it it flashed up with an error message, too quick for me to read but I think it is the same thing and a problem with writing to the javascript folder
edit: I have just set this up on another site and it is working fine. On the britishdogbreeders.co.uk site I have chmod directory - 666 so have changed this to 755 and it appears to be ok. Not sure why it was 666 - I'm sure I checked this before!
