    Default attributes which depend on other attributes

    hello,

    is the following possible with zen cart's attribute system?

    Product A (a software with licenses for 2,3,5,10 etc places)

    has two attributes:

    Version 1
    Version 2

    and a Drop Down box for the number of licenses

    license for 1 places
    license for 5 places
    license for 10 places

    Now, when the Product has

    Version 1

    there are only versions for

    license for 1 places
    license for 5 places


    but if product has

    Version 2

    there are versions for

    license for 1 places
    license for 5 places
    license for 50 places
    license for 100 places


    so the attribute "licenses" depends on the attribute "version" - can i do this somehow?

    Dependent Attributes are not a part of the stock system at this time.

    Default Re: attributes which depend on other attributes

    ok, i just came up with a thought how to simulate it:

    is there a way to jump to another product when a specific option is selected? maybe with some javascript?

    what i want to acomplish is, to avoid that the customer must click through the categories and products without really knowing what he needs but to present him with basically one product which he refines (version a? version b?, ok, how many places? ok, and so on..). basically a "wizard".

    any way to do something like this?

    thanks in advance,

    PAT

    I'd love an add-on or module that would do this to.

    If I'm selling a lingerie set I need one drop down attribute box of bra size to contorl another drop down box with cup sizes.l

    I.E if a cust. selects size they can then only select from cup C or D.

    Attribute Dependent Attributes... A.D.A..... a structured, statically typed programming language designed by Jean Ichbiah of CII Honeywell Bull in the 1970s or the Americans with Disabilities Act?

    Wolf99, the approach I took was to validate the data after it had been entered.
