Add text to the popup_image window

[pjb923]

I am trying to add some text to the larger image popup window.
For example, if I wanted to display the product name under the image:

I tried using the syntax from the tpl_product_info_display.php file by adding
<!--bof Product Name-->
<p id="productName" class="style2"><?php echo $products_name; ?></p>
<!--eof Product Name-->
to the /popup_image/tpl_main_page.php file, but I can't get the value to display.

Is there a function that I can use to display this value in the popup window?

Thanks in advance for the help.

I subscribed to this thread a long time ago, hoping to see an answer. But nothing yet.

Does anyone know how to do this?

TIA

Copy the includes/templates/template_default/popup_image directory to your custom template. Modify the tpl_main_page.php inside to your heart's content .

Thanks again Kim, I'm starting to fiddle with that now.

One question: what's the difference between the popup_image_additional folder and the popup_image folder? Both contain the same file -- tpl_main_page.php -- but the contents of that file are a little different. When I temporarily dropped the tpl_main_page.php file from the _additional folder into the other folder, all that happened was that the large pop-up image window contained only a thumbnail.
