I'd like to ask how one is able to change the languages in any extra html pages we did, that opens on a new screen with javascript. We've created a few HTML info pages in English, but I'd like to replace all the text with $lng lables for the future alterations.

Would be great to be able to include {$ImagesDir} paths to the pure HTML popup pages as well!

Thanks in advance everyone.

Yes this can be done.

The basic process is as follows:

- the pop up should be a php file with an added variable that dictates what to display
- the php file will call smarty and other includes as per home.php
- the php file assign a template to display.

See help.php for an example

- create a main template (the one referred to above) that includes other templates for the content. (help/index.tpl for an example)
- other templates hold the lanaguage placeholders. (see help/about.tpl)

Thanks Funkydunk!

Very precise and exactly what I was looking for!

Hi,

I'm trying to do the same. I have want the send to friend section open in a popup. So I made a php file - send_to_friend_window.php and have the following in that:

require "./auth.php";

require $xcart_dir.DIR_CUSTOMER."/send_to_friend.php";

# Assign the current location line
$smarty->assign("location", $location);

func_display("customer/main/send_to_friend.tpl",$smarty);

when the popup opens it briefly displays a message about redirection, then loads the page: error_message.php?access_denied

any guidance on what I'm doing wrong would be most appreciated
