Thank you for the clarification willirl - it is appreciated.

I substituted 'Specifications' for 'YYYYY' but it didn't show in the page title but that is a minor thing that I am not really concerned about.

I apologise for taking up your time but in your opinion is there a method whereby I can create a global text variable ($prod_spec for example) then assign different texts to this varaible, enabling me to use the variable for the same hlp_XXXX.tpl.

If not then it appears my solution is to create more hlp_XXXX.tpl files, each one having different text.

Thanks once again for the method and for your reply.

Regards

I'm not sure how you would do this.

I was barking up the wrong tree. What I finished up doing was to create a pop-up window called hlp_productlink.tpl, then created several text variables in Admin called txt_prod_speci_001, txt_prod_speci_002 etc.

Within hlp_productlink.tpl I then called the appropriate text. For example, {$lng.txt_prod_speci_001} or {$lng.txt_prod_speci_002} and so on.

However, having done that, I can't help thinking there must be a better way.

Greetings,
I've followed these instructions and still get an error in the popup window:

Page not found!
The requested page does not exist or you are not allowed to access it!

I've changed the .htaccess to allow for all. Is there any other suggestions?
Does it matter that I need the pop up window on my checkout page but it seems like the help files are unsecure?
I've searched for the cvv2_tpl link ( so that maybe I could duplicate it) as that popup works fine.
Thanks so much!

I'm not sure what's wrong but I think you're on the right track. I don't have any experience with http vs. https. Perhaps someone else here might be able to help.

Hi,
Thanks jgilford, I have seen your site www.junkyjewelry.com, it is very beautiful.

I have tried adding some JavaScript popup code in product thumbnail in the products page that would open a small window/popup for additional information or small information /description about product on mouseover (like your site which shows Zoom image).Ideally it should take info from the detailed description field (product page) and show in this popup. Searched the forum but couldn▓t find the post/thread on this.Can you help me to do this code or any hints.

Is it possible to show a product description/small description in a small popup?

Any help/inputs on this would be highly appreciated.

If you're getting the

Page not found!
The requested page does not exist or you are not allowed to access it!

message, you need to make sure that the hlp_XXXX.tpl files you're creating are all lowercase. You'll see in includes/popup_info.php there is this line of code:

PHP Code:

$template_name = "help/hlp_".strtolower($action).".tpl";

I am having the same message, files are in lower case.
Did somebody get this working?
