Dynamic Price Updater

Hi all

I've been doing a bit of updating and housekeeping with the Updater... Firstly there was a bit of a discrepancy with the way the Updater was interacting with the cart which has now been fixed... As far as I'm aware there haven't been any situations where the bug might surface but it's better safe than sorry

Secondly, I've added the functionality for the Updater to display the weight of the product dynamically... I'm not sure if this is of any use to anyone but I thought I'd put it in there anyway... If you want to use it simply create a DIV or a SPAN with the ID of 'productWeight' and the Updater will update it for you automatically... I'd suggest something like the following layout:

<div class="myContainer">
   Product weight:
   <span id="productWeight"></span>
</div>

This code should go in includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php

I've also added a rudimentary sidebox feature but it's a bit more involved to get working... It's designed to work the same way as the one that was included with DPUv1 but I haven't quite got the prices for the individual attributes sorted out yet... Anyone that wants to give it a try (it isn't *very* difficult) should have a quick look at the readme included (under Update!)

I know this hasn't addressed any core issues that people have been experiencing but to be honest I've kind've lost track of all the issues... Could anyone still having a problem please repost it?

If there are any problems with the new additions please let me know

Cheers!

Hi all

After some messing about I've managed to get the attribute prices working in the sidebox and there's sort of a very basic templating system for the sidebox content

Go here for a demo http://chrome.me.uk/shopdev/

Anyway, if you're interested please give it a go and let me know how you get on

Cheers!

Sounds like you might have made some changes that might make the DPU work on our site now. Im going to re-download the new package and try updating my installation. Maybe it will work this time!

Fingers crossed and good luck

Hi

Bit of an odd one that... The Updater is definitely returning the values as I'd expect to see but the display isn't updating... Ive checked the element IDs and they seem to tally also... Really I'd have to be able to test on your site to be able to track this one down

As you already have someone helping you I'll bid you good luck

Give me a shout if I can help

If you could help with the problem it would be greatly appreciated. There are JS errors when the attributes are changed on the page if that helps.
