Dynamic Price Updater

Hi Chrome,
That would be awesome. Thanks so much.

Just wanted to say thanks for a great little plugin!

When my customers are looking at products, after I implemented this mod, I see dpu_ajax.php as the url they are browsing in the who's online part of the admin. How do I fix this?

Hi

The reason this happens is because the Updater is Ajax-based and browsers request the dpu_ajax.php file. As far as I'm aware there's no way round this. It has been mentioned earlier in the thread if I'm not mistaken, but I don't believe a solution was found

Congratulations...worked first time.

Some observations on this version 3.1.1.

1) FFox with Web Developer flagged up a js error.

Quote:

---

Warning: ReferenceError: assignment to undeclared variable updateSidebox

---

referrring to its first use here

Code:

---

        var sbContent = '';
        updateSidebox = true; HERE
    } else {
        updateSidebox = false;

---

So I declared it at the start:

Code:

---

  var psp = false;
  var updateSidebox;

---

2) Chrome flagged another error

Quote:

---

Uncaught NotFoundError: An attempt was made to reference a Node in a context where it does not exist.

---

Referring to:

Code:

---

objXHR.prototype.handlePrice = function () {
  var thePrice = document.getElementById('productPrices');
  thePrice.removeChild(loadImg); HERE

---

Changed this to

Code:

---

    if (thePrice.loadImg) {
  thePrice.removeChild(loadImg);
  }

---

3) I noted that the method of switching off of the sidebox code generation is not implemented. ie it still fires when the sidebox is not enabled in the Admin as

PHP Code:

---

$show_dynamic_price_updater_sidebox = true; 


---

is set manually in three places.
I did make some effort to make it work but lost interest when passing a variable into the class method, so just disabled the code in the three relevant places as I don't use the sidebox.

Thanks, I will add these to the next update asap

This is easier if superglobals is used to show the session variable only.

Scenario

Not logged in.
Go to a product and add it to the cart.
Go to another category and then a product.
The session, navigation object will contain two or three entries, but the last one has the current product_info page and id, and the second-to-last entry the category path as shown below.

Now go to the shopping cart.
The “Back to Shopping” button is not linking to the last product but to the index page and the navigation object shows why: the information is gone.

This is what is in the object.

This is what should be in the object.

What wipes it is the call to application_top.php made in dpu_ajax.php

As I have already spent a phenomenal amount of time tracking this down and there are a few things in this addon's code that I don't get, …I’m handing this over...good luck!
