    Default Sidebox Module - bbCode Forum Linking

    I built a module that would allow customers to link elegantly to my different product pages.

    There are two options:
    - Product Name Link (text only)
    - Product Image Link

    I am not a ZC guru, so please feel free to comment and improve on this module!

    Okay, playing around a bit with this, I have learned that it will only work in the right column, after the product has been defined.

    Clearly I'm missing some key elements, but I'm not smart enough to figure that part out...

    v1.1 released
    - Javascript code highlights the bbCode when you click in the input box.
    - I added the image code to the popup_image and popup_image_additional pages.

    There is still a bug where the product_id and product_image is not displayed when the sidebox is located in the left column.

    v1.2 released
    - I missed a bug that prevents the Product_ID from being included in the URL on the popup_image page.

    We have a lot of customers that link to our products on discussion forums and we were tired of the ugly cut/paste that they were getting by just dumping in the URL, so we developed something cleaner.

    Have a look at this page. On the right side is a box called 'bbCode Links' and there are two text boxes. One contains forum code for linking back to the page using the product name and the second one has code that uses the product picture.

    Simple!
