Thanks for the help but that didn't work either!?
If the long_description is called first then where there is a long description
on a product it shows the long description but does not show the description on
products where there is no long description and only a description and most
annoyingly if the description is called first then it shows description but not
the long description on products that don't have a description but do have a
long description.
