Problem
When I click on a term on any page (esp my products), I get a list of teasers tagged with that term. Ie, I click the term "Tom", I get all the Tom pages listed by its teasers. Lame! Especially for a store site.

I want a nice table view. (or even a grid view).

Solution
Use the Views Module. I only just learned this one. And im glad I did.

Step 1.
Install the view module.

Step 2.
Go to admin/build/views

Step 3.
Look for the view called "taxonomy_term". This one is pre installed with the module. Just choose add/enable. From now on, all the terms lists will be themed by this View. (SWEET). Note: This will not mess up your catalog... well, it didnt for me anyways.

Step 4.
Edit the view as you please. Try the table view if you please. I like to list my terms, image, price, product name on my view. And then make it sortable by price.

Good suggestion!
The default "Teaser List" view type usually sucks. I think "Table View" with the fields we want is so much better.

Now i would be interested on how to theme/customize the output. Make the table or list view more purty.
