Could anyone please point me to a topic for this subject please! I have found the sub-categories but am unable to find code for the manufacturers.

What I want is a drop down box instead of a huge list in the 'other manufacturers' page. At present I have nearly 100 of them thus causing a huge page scroll.

Many Thanks

There is some code in there by PhilJ for maunufacturer drop down, haven't tried it yet, it's on my huge pile of 'thing to do'!!

Cheers for that, but it seems as though the code is for a search drop down, what I was looking for was some code for a drop down for the other manufacturers page.

Yeah i've got the same on my site (but i renamed it ranges - but it's still the manufacturer)

this is the code that i've got in
modules/Manufacturers/menu_manufacturers.tpl

<form name="form_manuf" method="get" action="manufacturers.php" style="margin-bottom:0;"> 
    <table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="90%" align="right" valign="middle">[img]{$ImagesDir}/3reddots.gif[/img]</td>
    <td width="0" align="right"><select name="manufacturerid" onChange="document.form_manuf.submit()"> 
      <option value="0" selected>Choose a Range</option> 
      {section name=mid loop=$manufacturers_menu} 
      <option value="{$manufacturers_menu[mid].manufacturerid}" {if $manufacturerid==$manufacturers_menu[mid].manufacturerid} selected {/if}>{$manufacturers_menu[mid].manufacturer}</option> 
      {/section} 
    </select> </td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>

Funky may not like sharing the code you had to pay for to someone for free, may want to ask permission prior and avoid upsetting someone.

Maybe I can sell it to you via him
