For example, if the description is always the same, you can remove that code: <div id="hikashop_product_description_<?php echo $variant_name;?>" style="display:none;"> <?php echo JHTML::_('content.prepare',preg_replace('#<hr *id="system-readmore" */>#i','',$variant->product_description));?> </div> That will reduce the size of the page, its processing and allow browser to download the page much faster Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzU1NjM4LXZhcmlhbnRzLWRyb3Bkb3duLWxpc3Qtb3B0aW1pemF0aW9uP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation.
