Hi Ken & TheOracle,

Thanks for your interest. Sorry for the delay, but you can now find a screen shot of the tag cloud along with a link to the live site where it is implemented (if somewhat roughly) on my beautiful web log.

TheOracle, I was a little lost about your CSS comment. When I view the css file all seem like text. Could you please elaborate.

I would love to hear some suggestions for further developments to assist me in setting priorities.

Cheers,

Nathan

Hi Nathan,

I have been fooling around with your tag cloud addition to Zen-Cart and have some recommendations for the HTML/CSS output:

--- zentagcloud.php ---

1. I'd get rid of the   entities on line 156 and add padding to the elements via CSS instead
2. For some unknown reason I get an empty link right at the beginning. I inserted a quick fix to prevent this from happening on line 154:

   if ($returnType == "html" & $value['tag'] != "") 

3. As the Wikipedia definition says, a Tag Cloud is a weighted list. So I recommend using the HTML unordered-list element for output on lines 156 & 159.

The changes I described are included in the attachment as an example, feel free to use them if you want.

Thank you for the funky contribution! Nicolas

Nice mod, I don't think I'll use it tho. BTW, your site was extremely slow for me, you may want to fix that.

A bit OT, but I can confirm that your site was snailishly slow today, madteckhead.

How to limit the numbers of the tags show?

Im totally stumped with how to limit the number of tags that are displayed.
I would ideally like it to fit into a box roughly 200x200 px.

Can anyone help me ?!?

The mod came from http://www.madteckhead.com/blog/zentagcloud
and I read all the posts in the zen forum here :?

Thanks

Did you figure out how to do this? I need to limit to show only 20 random tags.

I tried this below in zentagcloud_func.php, but didn't work. Still shows all tags.

function zen_get_metatags_keywords1($product_id, $language_id) {
    global $db;
    $product = $db->Execute("select metatags_keywords
                             from " . TABLE_META_TAGS_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . "
                             where products_id = '" . (int)$product_id . "'
                             and language_id = '" . (int)$language_id . "' LIMIT 20");

    return $product->fields['metatags_keywords'];
  }
