Glad to hear it.

Now if only I can get my "More Info" or "product enquiry" to work in these tabs.

I know it can be done. I see it everywhere. For some reason it runs through the script on me and seems as though an email has been sent when clicking on the tab. AAARRRR!

No One out there have any ideas? Or is this a huge secret? lol

Wish I could help on that. I just double checked on mine, and it works fine. :?

Were you referring to your addition of the details in tabs, or do you have a more info type email submission within the tabs that is working?

I gotcha, I read it wrong. I don't have mine set up for that. :(

I am trying to modify the tab mod to access the complete product.tpl , as the default/first tab. I have integrated the tab mod into a unique dialog.tpl called from the product.tpl and have the {title} as the first tab, but the problem is:

1. I am trying to call the product.tpl from the product.tpl, where the unique dialog.tpl is in order to have the default product details (without having to click to see it)
2. Whenever I attempt to call the inserted prioduct details, my products won't load/reload.

Ideas? Has anyone successfully worked this or something very similar and could share the code?

Thanks,

- Mike

this works very well.

thanks!

I had some problems for the images if then statement on X-Cart 4.0.11

Here is what I did to fix it

Code:

{if $images eq ""}

{else}[*]<FONT SIZE="1">Detailed Images</FONT

{/if}

HTH

Thanks for this really great mod and free too!!!!

Regarding the if statements to only show the tabs when they have content I amended Phils code in the product.tpl to this:

Code:

<ul id="tablist">

{if $product_links ne ""}[*]Related

{/if}

{if $images ne ""}[*]Detailed Images 

{/if}[*]Send to Friend

{if $active_modules.Customer_Reviews ne ""}

  {if $config.Modules.customer_voting eq "Y" or $config.Modules.customer_reviews eq "Y"}[*]Reviews

  {/if}

{/if}

{if $recommends}[*]Recommended 

{/if}[/list]

and it works well. The only exception is if you are allowing review but there aren't any yet, it will then show the tab but with no content.

To fix that I changed the skin1/modules/Customer_Reviews/reviews.tpl to move the first /if statement down a bit and added an else to say 'there are no reviews yet'. Just going to paste the whole reviews.tpl file again as I can't work out how to bold within code blocks.

Code:

<FORM method="POST" action="product.php?mode=review&productid={$product.productid}">

<TR><TD colspan="2">

<FONT class="ProductDetailsTitle">{$lng.lbl_customer_reviews}</FONT>

</TD></TR>

<TR><TD class="Line" height="1" colspan="2">[img]{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif[/img]</TD></TR>

{if $reviews ne ""}

{section name=r_i loop=$reviews}

<TR>

<TD colspan="2">

{$lng.lbl_author}: {$reviews[r_i].email|default:$lng.lbl_unknown}

{$reviews[r_i].message|replace:"\n":"

"}



</TD></TR>

{/section}

{else}

<TR><TD colspan="2">

There are no reviews for this product yet.</TD></TR>

{/if}

{if ($config.Modules.writing_reviews eq "A") or ($login ne "" and $config.Modules.writing_reviews eq "R")}

<TR><TD colspan="2">



<FONT class="ProductDetailsTitle">{$lng.lbl_add_your_review}</FONT>

</TD></TR>

<TR><TD class="Line" height="1" colspan="2">[img]{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif[/img]</TD></TR>

<INPUT type="hidden" name="productid" value='{$product.productid}'>

<TR>

<TD width="30%">

{$lng.lbl_your_name}:</TD><TD>

<INPUT type="text" size="24" name="review_author" {if $login ne ""}value="{$customer_info.firstname} {$customer_info.lastname} ({$customer_info.email})"{/if}></TD></TR>

<TR>

<TD width="30%">{$lng.lbl_your_message}:</TD><TD><TEXTAREA cols="40" rows="4" name="review_message"></TEXTAREA></TD></TR>

<TR>

<TD colspan="2"><INPUT type="submit" value="{$lng.lbl_add_review}"></TD></TR>

{/if}

</FORM>

thanks

If you are speaking about the tabs and ability to change them from text boxes to rounded corners, or tab images, I would say yes, you would need to mod the tab script as it is diplayed.

there is code floating around the forum right now on how to change tabs to rounded corners using images, in custom mods area

This is same code type to make it all images, code needs to be tweaked a bit to make it happen.

Just do not destroy the call tags for the sections when making changes in the way it is displayed.

You could even make this verticle not hrizontal if you wanted. It is all in the way you tweak the code.
