Extra Options listed with product, field much too small.

Can anyone point me to the correct place to make a change.
This pic shows what I'm trying to change.

The product is a direct donation, I have the extra fields in there nicely, I just need the extra option cell to span the two colums or to appear much wider. As you can see it's very bunched up.

Thanks for your time.

All the best,
Aaron

I would suggest either editing the options template so that the input box is BELOW the option description, or editing your product.tpl so that the content wraps under the product image.

Thanks balinor, please point me to the location of those files.
I see alot of different product.tpl files. I can feel a fat finger in the works!

Sorry, product template is customer/main/product.tpl

Option display file is modules/Product_Options/customer_options.tpl

Thank you again.

So this is my customer_options.tpl

Can I just put a
in there somewhere? Where?
This stuff is kicking my ass. :(

Code:

{* $Id: customer_options.tpl,v 1.9.2.2 2004/03/30 12:38:54 svowl Exp $ *}

{section name=product_option loop=$product_options}

<tr>

<td valign=middle height=25>

{if $usertype eq "A"}

{ $product_options[product_option].optclass }:

{else}

{ $product_options[product_option].opttext }

{/if}

</td>

<td colspan=2 valign=middle>

{if $cname ne ""}

{assign var="poname" value="$cname[`$product_options[product_option].optclass`]"}

{else}

{assign var="poname" value="product_options[`$product_options[product_option].optclass`]"}

{/if}

{if $product_options[product_option].options ne ""}

{assign var="options" value=$product_options[product_option].options}

<select name="{$poname}"{if $disable} disabled{/if}>

{section name=option loop=$options}

<option value={$smarty.section.option.index}{if $options[option].selected ne ""} selected{/if}>{$options[option].option}{if $options[option].surcharge ne 0} ({$options[option].surcharge|value_sign:"1"}{if $options[option].type eq "absolute"}{$config.General.currency_symbol}{$options[option].surcharge|abs_value}{else}{$options[option].surcharge|abs_value}%{/if}){/if}</option>

{/section}

</select>

{else}

<input type=text name="{$poname}" size=32 value="{$product_options[product_option].options_string}">

{/if}

</td>

</tr>

{/section}

{if $err eq "options" and $options_ex ne ""}

<TR>

<TD colspan=2><FONT class=CustomerMessage>Warning! The product cannot be added to cart because the following combination of options is not available:</FONT></TD>

</TR>

<TR valign=top>

<TD colspan=2>

{section name=oi loop=$options_ex}

* {$options_ex[oi].exception}




{/section}

</TD>

</TR>

{/if}

Maybe the customer/main/product.tpl will be easier for me.
I'll go take a look.

Try this. Replace this:

Code:

<td valign=middle height=25>

{if $usertype eq "A"}

{ $product_options[product_option].optclass }:

{else}

{ $product_options[product_option].opttext }

{/if}

</td>

<td colspan=2 valign=middle>

with this:

Code:

<td valign=middle height=25 colspan="2">

{if $usertype eq "A"}

{ $product_options[product_option].optclass }:

{else}

{ $product_options[product_option].opttext }

{/if}

</td></tr><tr>

<td colspan=2 valign=middle>

Thanks again sir, but I guess I'm missing something else.
It looks like it did indeed make a little more room but not the desired effect.

I tried a different valign as well as colspan=3.. but notta.

Did you copy my code exactly? It looks like you missed the two new tr tags I added....

No sir I did not.
I did miss those and do apologize.
I'm adding them now.

Yeah that's the ticket!

Balinor, you are a scholar and a gentleman, many thanks for your expert help today.
