Which template do I need to change and (with what code) do I need to change to replace the product quantity drop down menu in a normal product table, to a normal quantity input field?

[funkydunk]

This is in products.tpl

[Jon]

What provisions need to be made to ensure that the field is numeric and not going to cause complications?

[funkydunk]

That is already inbuilt into cart.php and will not cause a problem.

Excuse the newbie question, but which code should I replace, with what?

[Jon]

<select name=amount>
{if $products[product].min_amount le 1}
{assign var="start_quantity" value=1}
{else}
{assign var="start_quantity" value=$products[product].min_amount}
{/if}
{section name=quantity loop=$mq start=$start_quantity}
<option value="{%quantity.index%}" {if $smarty.get.quantity eq %quantity.index%}selected{/if}>{%quantity.index%}</option>
{/section}
</select>

Replace with this code and that should do it:

<input type="text" name="amount" size="3">

Sweeeeeet! Thanks!

I've changed my quantity field as described above - but now have this problem:

Product has a minimum quantity - must purchase 100. If user enters a number less than 100, resulting page reads "Access Denied! You are not allowed to access that resource!". Any ideas? I'm assuming the cart is trying to redirect me to a page alerting me that I didn't enter a valid quantity, but for some reason isn't getting there.

thanks in advance!

If I was using minimum and/or maximum quantity I'd stick with the drop down box personally.

How would I set the default value of this text box to "1"?

So the box would read "1" but the user could change that number via highlight or delete and add their own number.

Make sense?
