Scrolling Featured Sidebox support thread

[ckosloff]

As mentioned in other thread, is probably achievable with
slide show sidebox...not sure about using scrolling featured
sidebox for news...would have to investigate when have spare
moment.

OK, just one more question.
Where can I get slideshow sidebox?
Couldn't find it by searching in the downloads area and not available in dezina.com.
Thanks.

Still testing on various zencart releases, so not available
as yet.

Hi Misty,

I put the tpl_featured.php in the path, this ist´s an unique file that donwload in the free software add-ons options in www.zen-cart.com
I change to enable status in controler sideboxes option
I change in the config->maximum valuez -> Random Featured Products for Box to 5 value

with all this steps dont work. This add-on its buyit of freeware?

You can an idea?

Thanks

Scrolling featured box works great except in IE6. I did the fix for the images being offset in IE6 but now the scrolling images start scrolling at the top of the featured .box_head rather than the featured .box_body in IE 6 only. So, the "Featured [More]' text gets scrolled over.
Any ideas?

Your zencart site also has Image Handler installed...see
earlier post in this thread
i.e.
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...0&postcount=53
Then scrolling will work correctly
i.e

Hi Misty,
Please clarify on which file should I make the modification, if possible line #, please.
Thanks.

IF you have scrolling featured sidebox installed..
tpl_featured.php
REPLACE

if ($total > 1) { //if more than one special exists in the db then scrolling begins
  $content .= '<MARQUEE behavior= "scroll" align= "center" direction= "up" height="160" scrollamount= "2" scrolldelay= "5" onmouseover=\'this.stop()\' onmouseout=\'this.start()\'>' . $rn .'</MARQUEE>';
  }

WITH

if ($total > 1) { //if more than one special exists in the db then scrolling begins
  $content .= '<MARQUEE style="position:relative" behavior= "scroll" align= "center" direction= "up" height="160" scrollamount= "2" scrolldelay= "5" onmouseover=\'this.stop()\' onmouseout=\'this.start()\'>' . $rn .'</MARQUEE>';
  }

Just gathering info for now.

Hi Misty,

Does this wonderful Mod works in CenterBox as well? If not how can I make it work in the CenterBox? Or should I be looking at the slideshow instead. I do not use left or right sidebox.

[misty]

should I be looking at the slideshow instead

Yes, add to define main page...adding to centre box will
be complicated.
