(fixed) Link to product details from category header

[sunnysbulbs]

Need a little PHP help. In \html\com_virtuemart\category\default.php I have the following..

Code Select Expand

<div class="width55 floatcenter">
          <h2>
            <!-- <?php echo JHTML::link($product->link, $product->product_name); ?>-->
            <?php echo $product->product_name; ?>
          </h2>

I think that piece of code is what generates the product name as a header in the virtuemart category view. What I would like to do is also make that header link to the actual product page. Thought this was the solution... http://docs.joomla.org/JHtml::link/1.6 but couldn't work out how to use '$url'

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think by default that is a feature of virtuemart
try un-commenting the code - use the one below

Code Select Expand

<div class="width55 floatcenter">
          <h2>
            <?php echo JHTML::link($product->link, $product->product_name); ?>
            <?php echo $product->product_name; ?>
          </h2>
or try this one if the one above will generate two headings

Code Select Expand

<div class="width55 floatcenter">
          <h2>
            <?php echo JHTML::link($product->link, $product->product_name); ?>
           </h2>


i have this one I changed the heading

Code Select Expand

<h6><?php echo JHTML::link($product->link, $product->product_name); ?></h6>
