Ask A Question

[NamSingh]

There is no setting for alignment. I tried really hard to get it done in CSS but images are tricky. So i created a table yes, this is the code used in product_info_display.php

<table align="center">
<tr>
<td>
<!--bof Additional Product Images -->
<?php
/**
* display the products additional images
*/
require($template->get_template_dir('/tpl_modules_additional_images.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_additional_images.php'); ?>
<!--eof Additional Product Images -->
</td>
<td>
<!--bof ask a question -->
<div id="productAskQuestion">
<?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ASK_A_QUESTION, 'products_id='
. $_GET['products_id']) . '">' .
zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_ASK_A_QUESTION, BUTTON_ASK_A_QUESTION_ALT) .
'</a>'; ?></div>
</a>
</div>
<!--eof ask a question -->
</td>
<td>
<!--bof Reviews button and count-->
<?php
if ($flag_show_product_info_reviews == 1) {
// if more than 0 reviews, then show reviews button; otherwise, show the "write review" button
if ($reviews->fields['count'] > 0 ) { ?>
<div id="productReviewLink" class="buttonRow back"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS, zen_get_all_get_params()) . '">' . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_REVIEWS, BUTTON_REVIEWS_ALT) . '</a>'; ?></div>

<p class="reviewCount"><?php echo ($flag_show_product_info_reviews_count == 1 ? TEXT_CURRENT_REVIEWS . ' ' . $reviews->fields['count'] : ''); ?></p>
<?php } else { ?>
<div id="productReviewLink" class="buttonRow back"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_WRITE, zen_get_all_get_params(array())) . '">' . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_WRITE_REVIEW, BUTTON_WRITE_REVIEW_ALT) . '</a>'; ?></div>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<?php
}
}
?>
<!--eof Reviews button and count -->
</td>
<td>
<!--bof Tell a Friend button -->
<?php
if ($flag_show_product_info_tell_a_friend == 1) { ?>
<div id="productTellFriendLink" class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo ($flag_show_product_info_tell_a_friend == 1 ? '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_TELL_A_FRIEND, 'products_id=' . $_GET['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_TELLAFRIEND, BUTTON_TELLAFRIEND_ALT) . '</a>' : ''); ?></div>
<?php
}
?>
<!--eof Tell a Friend button -->
</td>
</tr>

Thanks for the quick reply. Mine didn't work out like yours did when using tables so i had to use CSS instead.

Do you know ho to move the main image itself? i.e. from the left to right or center? what is the code for it?

Thank you

[NamSingh]

it should work ok, but you need to use the

float: left;

etc :)

The fix discovered by NamSingh has been posted to the downloads area. Thanks, NamSingh!

When I did it in my cart, the button did not say, "Ask a Question" (I didn't use the supplied button), so I had to add some link text - but I forgot to delete this when I posted the solution. Thanks to Phid for noticing this - but he has missed one problem line (the extra div). The correct code is

<div id="askQuestion" class="biggerText">
<?php
echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_ASK_A_QUESTION, 'products_id=' . $_GET['products_id']) . '">' .
zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_ASK_A_QUESTION, BUTTON_ASK_A_QUESTION_ALT) . '</a>'; ?>
</div>
<br />
<br class="clearBoth" />

Thanks,
Scott

Ok. I'm slow. Where do I put this code in the file? Under what line?
Thanks

Wow I am slow today. I guess I should read with my glasses on!
Sorry about the dumb question.

In the Read me file, I missed the word Alternately you can....

For anyone that is also interested, i have added a Sidebox to swguy mod. This allows for a sidebox to pop up when you are viewing a product. It only works when you are looking at Products and will be hidden when you are not..

Thanks to swguy for making the original mod.

The Zen Cart forum has a downloads area for sideboxes - you might consider hosting it here instead.

[FONT=Arial]Hi Scott,
I have a query about your "Ask a Question" Contrib.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]If I create a Zen Cart in Showcase mode - ie no commerce - I would like to use your ,"ask a question" contrib to enable prospective clients to email specific questions about any specific product. (now comes the tricky part)

[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]However - when a client fills in a question and then presses send - can the email address details and name be held somehow - so that if the Client then goes to another product and asks another question etc - he/she does not have to re-enter all her details ad nauseum.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]Is this possible as is with this contribution? As far as I can see a kind of similar thing that I may be thinking of is happening on this website - http://www.activepromo.com.au
