    Default Quick Questions On Customizing My Product Pages

    hi,

    I'm looking to customize my product page exactly like this below

    https://demo.rapidorders.com/order.p...s.php?cId=1885

    Can something like this be done on zen cart? If it is possible do i need to use the attributes manager?? Do i do all of this on the admin interface or do i have to dig in the php files and customize this manually.

    Also how can i create those orange bars for each category it has. Like for example there is an orange bar for "Please Select a Salad Dressing" ," Please Select a Salad Meat", "Please Select a Salad Three Ingredients" etc


    Thank you very much for your help!!!

    Yes, that wouldn't be all that hard in Zencart. All the options are attributes.

    Most of that design could be done in Admin and editing the stylesheet. Shouldn't be a lot of PHP file editing required, except a template file or two.

    That's the really easy part.
    Add to your stylesheet:
    Code:
    h4.optionName {
        width: 100%;
        background-color: #fed456;
        text-align: center;
        }
    Adjust & add properties to taste.

    One thing that would take some actual coding is a requirement like the one to choose exactly three options from the checkbox list of "Please Select a Salad Three Ingredients:"
    Checkboxes, unlike radiobuttons, inherently don't care how many are checked; it can be zero or five. You would need to perform a test on this to verify the quantity checked before accepting the order.

    You are right about that one......is there a way where i can do a JavaScript validation or a php validation for those check boxes?

    and last questions is there also a way where i can insert a special instruction text field below the menu?

    Thank you very much!

    The validation is outside my area of expertise.

    If you want the instructions in the sidebar, you could install the Blank Sidebox mod from Downloads and put whatever content you want in it.

    Glenn,

    I did what you told me to do (styling my option names) i did it and it worked. However all of my option names have a yellow bar going across it. I want only one option name to have a yellow bar across it and then having 4 radio option name & values below it instead of having each option name styled.

    here is a link to show you what im talking about

    also for some reason all my radio buttons seem to be all selected... is there a way where i can have the all deselected and let the user toggle through them?

    Thank you very much for your help!
