Tabbed Products ''LITE'' version - Delimiter based

[IntelCos]

Tried this on 1.3.0.2 and nothing works, the html editor seems to strip out the command lines.

Any fixes on this for 1.3.0.2???

mine works fine !

Thanks for the great contrib ! it's just great !

Well, I installed this in a fresh install. I also installed the update and use both French and English.

But, nothing works in tabbed mode, tried various ways and nothing. so something is not right unless I missed something, which is rare. The install of this is pretty straightforward unless there is a need to merge the css stylesheets or add a call to the css for this.

DOH

took it for granted,,,

Overlooked that you need to merge the css comments into your current css stylesheet and then it works.

Not enough coffee

This is not a version thing. Since the commands are raw HTML, you would need to use the raw HTML editor for them, not HTMLArea or FCKEditor.

Do you have a link that I can see it on?

Hmm there is no merging. The file structure is the way it should be uploaded, except that you would need to rename the "YOUR TEMPLATE" folder. The stylesheet is its own stylesheet.

Hi qhome,

first of all, thank for sharing this great contribution to zen-cart.

I did have a problem this June-13rd version of Tabbed Products LITE.

The tabs are showing perfectly in Firefox, no luck in IE so far.

Hmm, i just checked your site in Opera, Firefox, and IE. The tabs worked fine for me in all 3. What version of IE are you using? Try another computer to test it out.. and maybe some others on the forum cant take a look at it to verify but it seems that the tabs are working just fine.

I will have a new version coming out pretty soon.. this version is cleaner and also works on the major browsers I mentioned above, perhaps this will assist you.

So far in the new version I've added:

• global overrides (when turned on, they add the hardcode tabs for all products regardless of the tag existence in the product description) (thanks for the idea Woody)
• found an interesting by-product feature of the code! You may notice on my test site (see signature) I have tabs that have text with word wrapping. The text is also centered and I could pretty much do anything I want with the tabs by using standard html tags inside the tags. Examples:
  
  • <!--%<center>Product<br />Description</center>%-->
  • <!--%<I>Product<br /><font color="#00FF00">Description</I>%-->
  • <!--%<marquee>Product<br />Description</marquee>%-->
• Roll over change
• using 2 images instead of 4, based on coords to show different sections of the image. (fancy ingenious code design)
• Cleaner, easier to modify/understand CSS
• Completely new tab system, totally new, smaller, optimized jscript

I'm finishing up the testing at the moment. Currently the Add to cart button, although it appears to be coded correctly, is showing up below the tab table on all browsers. And IE seems to have some problem with one of the hardcode tags. So as soon as I get those items fixed, it should be ready.

[qhome]

Another idea crossed my mind that I'd like to get some feedback on...

Instead of making the hardcode tabs based on the <!--#AdditionalImages#--> name, would it be useful to make a hard coded tag placed on the tab you want?

Like currently if you put
<!--%Tab1%-->
<!--%Tab2%-->
<!--#AdditionalImages#-->
<!--#ProductDetails#-->

that would make 4 tabs:
Tab1
Tab2
Additional Images
Product Details

But my proposal above would be
<!--%Tab1%-->
<!--%Tab2%-->
<!--%Tab3%-->
<!--&AdditionalImages&-->
<!--&ProductDetails&-->

This would make 3 tabs and have both additional images and product details on the same tab which you named "Tab3". This would allow combining of multiple sections into one tab.

I could maybe keep the current hardcode tags for global tab reasons.

Thoughts?

Started working on a slightly different style that I kinda liked:

look at each of those, one has tabs for everything, one just has tabs for the hardcoded stuff

Hi there,
I've checked your demo site about the new features, wow ~~~

Beautiful, kind of impressive.

I still have no clue about the Tabbed Products not showing in IE. My IE is 6.0 XP-SP2 version. I also tried maxton (an IE shell) and got no luck.

The opera does run the rendering very well though.

Thank you so much and I still have to find the problem........
