How is this done???

Can someone please take a look at this website and tell me how they do the custom creating on the bracelet? Is it just a color change or could something like this be used to...lets say... change charms and have it show how it will look?

I create custom items and seriously need this! Has anyone seen this being used on a zencart page?

Thanks so much!

JavaScript is part of how it is done... There is the possibility of using attribute image swap or something similar that would allow changing the selection (not necessarily drag and drop) and it would update the image(s) with the option(s) chosen... Takes a bit of coordination of images to be able to get all of the combinations to appear, but there are options.

Effectively, the sequence of the chosen colors is maintained so that when the item(s) are put on the order form that the store owner knows which items should be placed where... This is all controlled in the javascript code area... But could be duplicated in other ways, such as with the example product, 6 option names, each having the colors available, and as each is selected then the image for that bead is updated... There's a number of ways to implement, comes down to the one(s) involved in doing it, the desired method of choosing, and the time involved in pulling it all together. :)

To provide the same functionality it would require custom coding, although much of the code is already available straight from that site (possibly/probably licensed in some way but could be redeveloped to some extent or used as a mental template)

Thank you so much for responding. I sent a PM to you.

As you are aware, I responded... :) Perhaps even more explanation about the above operations will come and the functionality duplicated at least to some extent sooner rather than later.
