Back button in checkout process

[ALiepinieks]

i haven't tried this myself (in the shopping cart), however i don't think there's any reason why this shouldn't work.

you could try placing the following php in the location you wish the button to appear...

<?php echo zen_back_link() . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_BACK, BUTTON_BACK_ALT) . '</a>'; ?>

ps: don't put the word andy there, it just won't work : )

Silly question - Why do you think you should have a back button during checkout?

[stormieau]

I don't think I should have one, in fact I've tried to convince the client that we don't need one, but they insist on it .. unfortunately.

Thanks for the help Andy, I will try that today,

Cheers

Andy that sort of works ... but takes me back to the index page instead of the previous page ... any idea how to fix?

Thanks again,
Raina

nice point kim. why drive them away!

i haven't looked at the code that drives this function, but the back button does present odd results when used in places it wasn't designed for.

my only other suggestion (sorry, bit short on time!) is to use the good old js method:

<a href="javascript:history.go(number)">YOUR_BUTTON_OR_TEXT_HERE</a>

where number is the number of pages you wish to traverse...

e.g. <a href="javascript:history.go(-1)">YOUR_BUTTON_OR_TEXT_HERE</a> //Goes back 1 page
e.g. <a href="javascript:history.go(2)">YOUR_BUTTON_OR_TEXT_HERE</a> //Goes forward 2 pages

there are many more uses, check out this link to see what else is possible: http://www.bloggingdeveloper.com/pos...roperties.aspx
