Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[Doodlebuckets]

Hi Amy,
The only thing I know to tell you is to reinstall your IH2 files again. Make sure you overwrite ALL files (check your ftp software). Use the javascript fix for the image_hover.js file. Make sure your files are in the right place. I could not get it to work when the .js files were installed in the template_default/jscript directory. I had to use my_template/jscript directory.

Don't know if this will help you or if you already have tried it but I hope this will help.

That's it!!! I had forgotten that was something I had to do before. I appreciate the reminder...So did you get it working in IE?

Glad you got it working! And yes, I did get it to work for IE. I think that the way I got it to work was with the IE6 javascript fix. Is it working in IE for you?

Happy it's doing better for you...

It does work with on exception. All the images zoom in Firefox and most zoom in IE, except for the "New Products". The top row zooms but not the 2nd and 3rd rows. In the product categories, the same pics zoom. http://thebestofgifts.com

Odd, no?

[FONT=Verdana]There is a IE bug in the jscrpt_imagehover.js[FONT=monospace].[/FONT]
The hover works, it just coming up outside the screen.
A few posts back I posted a link for the fix.
You can edit the jscrpt_imagehover.js[/FONT][FONT=monospace][FONT=Verdana] file yourself or there is a patched file you can use.
You can search this thread for "IE Bug" also.

Hello pro Zenners,

I have tried to search far and wide for the answer to this but please bear with me if it's already been discussed...

I have ZC 1.37 and IH2 up and working great. The problem is when I add new products via duplication.

Most of my products are similar, only the photos and description change a little from each one to the other, so to add a new product I choose duplicate, duplicate to same category, and keep attributes.

That gives me a new product where I can edit the description, etc. But at first I tried to go in and 'delete' the images for that product (new one) with IH then add new images. What I realized is that deleted the images from the PREVIOUS product that it was copied from.

So, I think, the right way to go about it if I want to copy this way is not to delete the images on the new product but instead go in and choose the first one, hit 'edit', upload that pic, choose the 2nd, 'edit' , upload, etc.

Is this right? Am I missing a trick that everyone else uses?!?!?

Thanks!
Patrick

I've done quite a bit of copying to create my similar product pages. I just copy the product, then edit it and upload the new file via the product editing page. I've never had a problem with it working and I don't have duplicate images on the product pages.

I just went to your site and it looks like you have things working. It worked as it should for me when I used the mouse to hover over the images. Do you have it working? I did not see any errors. Oh and yes, your flash image looks cool!

Hello All,

I thought it might be helpful to wrap up all of the work I have been doing on this issue into a single post. When I get it resolved, I will edit it to add the solution.

The problem: IH works fine so long as the image hover will fit on the browser window when you mouse over the original image. Thus, when I first load the home page for the store, i can mouse over the top products in the list and see the hovers just fine. No errors initially reported in the bottom left of the browser window.

When I try to hover over a window nearer the bottom, such that the popup hover position relative to the original image would not by default fit into the visible space of the brower window, I immediately get an error message in the bottom of the browser (IE 6.x)

If I scroll down the browser page, then rehover over the image, the hover will display correctly. However, once the "error" message shows in the browser footer, it will not go away. Refreshing the page will start the whole thing over again.

I know that this problem is resolvable as I have seen member sites that are working correctly. I have messed around with the hover java script to try and adjust sizing and positioning, but no luck.

At this point, I think I will do what some other people have done to resolve IH issues - strip out IH and try a file by file insert to ensure that it goes correctly. Unfortunately, that won't help much to source the problem, but at least if it "fixes" it, it might provide some help for others.

Stay tuned...

Nope... No luck. I also attempted to switch to the classic template from the Sophy Blue Grey that I am using, but that made no difference.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated at this point, as I am pretty much beyond my ability to resolve this issue.

THanks,
