Product Pop Up Like Target.com?

[JCJXXL]

Does anyone happen to know if there is an add-on for Zen that does a pop up window for the product similar to what Target.com has?

On Target's page when you click on the thumbnail of the product a pop up window appears with a larger view but also in the same window is a product description and a button to add the item to your shopping cart.

I've searched the add-ons and can't find anything. Closest is Lightbox (which I have used a few times in the past) but it's missing the product description and the ability to add the item to your cart from within the lightbox window.

Thanks in advance!

Jcj,
That will take some major custom coding to achieve ...
In the Community Forum there is a link to Commercial Help ..
Just a suggestion ...

Yeah so how would be possible to achieve what they are doing here at KARMA loop.. Once you hover your mouse over a particular item you see quick shop...then click it then boom... the items page appears in a lightbox... and once you click checkout the lightbox fades and your item has been added...... And way ZEN CART can achieve this?

Certainly you can extend a Zen Cart to do this. It would take a wide range of skills, but for somebody with them, it wouldn't actually be that difficult technically.

The skills needed would be javascript to add the modal window, ajax to get the product data from the server, php and an understanding of how data is extracted from Zen Cart to supply that data and the product_info form used on the product_info page to submit purchase information to the cart.

But the scope of this way beyond that appropriate for a forum discussion. So if you don't have those skills, you'd need to employ somebody who does.
