Tell a Friend Button

[goosedesign]

Hello,

I'd really like to display 'Tell a Friend' just as a button, rather than the whole box etc. The code I'm using is

    <!--bof Tell a Friend button -->
    <?php
        
      echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_TELL_A_FRIEND, zen_get_all_get_params(array('action', 'products_id')) . 'products_id='.(int)$_GET['products_id'].'&action=tell_a_friend') . '" style="float:left;">' . zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_TELL_A_FRIEND , BUTTON_TELL_A_FRIEND_ALT) . '</a>'."\n"; 
    ?>
    <!--eof Tell a Friend button -->

It all displays fine, and works perfectly in Firefox and Safari on my mac, BUT, in IE6, clicking the button adds the product to the shopping cart instead. I can't understand the discrepancy, as surely it is server side code?!?

I actually had the same problem with the wish list module, although that also did it in Safari.

Any insights?

Doh! This is because my button is in the product_info_display.php page and part of a form whose job it is to add stuff to the cart. Is there either different code I could paste in there, or code I could add to whatever file handles that form, so it can also handle tell a friend? I just don't want it to be in a side box.

Sorted - silly, silly - I put the button in as part of the form using zen_image_submit, instead of just as a link using zen_image_button.

is it possible to permit people to use the "tell a friend" link without having to create an account or log into their account?

Yes it is:

'configuration' > 'email options' > 'allow guest to tell a friend'

It is set to false by default for SPAM prevention.
