Horizontal image ticker

**billscheltema** · 10 Jan 2009, 05:44 AM

Hi,

I administer a Sports DVD website and my client would like a horizontal ticker showing latest DVD releases just below the main banner image.

Is there anything like that for Zencart?

Not sure what a "Ticker" is but if you can locate one it most likely can be added to your tpl_header.php file as last.

Hi and thanks,

I just found this, which is what I think they are wanting.
May need help with integration.

Being that this is advetised as Flash - there are tutorials on how to add flash here in the tutorials. I would create a new div for it towards the end of the tpl_header.php file and I am including the following code that incorporates flash in the header BUT for reference only as it is for next to the logo and not at the bottom. It should provide you with a model though - Inserted code in red

Code:

<div id="headerWrapper">

<!--bof-branding display-->
<div id="logoWrapper">
    <div id="logo"><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, HEADER_ALT_TEXT) . '</a>'; ?></div>
	<div id="flashcontent">    
        <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"        
        <param name="movie" value="header.swf">
        <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF">
        <param name="quality" value="high">
        <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
        <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="samedomain">

        <embed
          type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
          pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
          name="flashcontent"
          width="600" height="104"
          src="includes/templates/account_name/images/header.swf"
          bgcolor="#FFFFFF"
          quality="high"
          wmode="transparent"
          swliveconnect="true"
          allowscriptaccess="samedomain"
          <noembed>
          </noembed>
        </embed></object>
    </div>
<?php if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '' || (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2))) { ?>

Hi & thanks,

The dockmenu is saying I need to add the swfobject, xml, images folder in the dir of the php I will be making/modifying.
Also, the php file needs the html hader and body tags added if not there, I tried it but no luck yet.
Any thoughts?

zen cart loads javascript dynamically if they are named and located in right folder.

you can put the script that needs to go between <head></head> , in another .js file and let zencart load it for you .

the loading of javascript by zencart is done by html_header.php ( I think )
and all side wide javascripts are done in <head></head> tag.

just my thought .

From your view source:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/templates/zj_silver_wide/jscript/jscript_jquery-1.2.6.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/templates/zj_silver_wide/jscript/jscript_jquery-ui-mods.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/templates/zj_silver_wide/jscript/jscript_jquery-zcj-controls.min.js"></script>
</head>

You can see that js that is in includes/templates/zj_silver_wide/jscript/ is loaded automatically - so this is where you need to have and additional js placed

I can see no inclusion for your desired script in the view source??
