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

[nigelt74]

Hey nigelt74, That looks impressive! where do you have that script, In the addon section?

umm no, I might think about it, but its a functional rather than elegant script, and i think the addon people would die laughing if I tried submitting it

It's better than the existing script for image Handler when it comes to webkit browsers, but it doesn't do Opera(neither does the original though) and thats what I am trying to get to work.

If you want to use it, honestly just paste the contents of the javascript file over the top of yout existing Js, the reason i made this script was that it could just drop in over the existing js, unfortunately all my work was aimed at getting opera compatibility, the webkit stuff was a side effect.

I will put a blog post up tomorrow if anyones interested, basically it is finished as far as i am concerned.

I'll add links to your work to the next IH2 release, but it won't be adding it to the next IH2 release. However for the sake of those who are interested in Nigel's work I think it is a good idea to include links to his work and blogs in the IH2 readme..

The popup won't go off the page, infact it stays at the bottom of the page and doesn't track the mouse for the webkit browsers, and doesn't work at all in opera (which is why i haven't spent much time on it)

The benefit of this latest script is you can just paste the contents over top of the existing jscript file with no other additions

Thank you works great! Just what I was looking for!

There is an improved version here, where the webkit support is better, but don't copy it as it is full of debugging code

The webkit improvements were yet again a side effect as I spent ages trying to get Opera working, to no avail, but I think i may be close to cracking it

right well... i now have a new error... i tryed on a different item and this time the addional image is shown... how ever this image is not just applied to this item its applied all all simular items as well!! it all the items in the catogory.

if you have all your images in a set folder---like just the images folder

then you need to give each image a unique name --- like if the product is agate neckace/earrings

name the image..agateneck-ear1.jpg

then if you get another of the same type call it totally different I found that if it has the same name as an existing one then it will show on all items with the image allocated to it.

i have many vendors so I went so far as to put the images into set folders with vendors/product name and that has helped totally

Eureka - Finally got Opera working

Jscript fix - new version 4.1

Works in Opera 10.5, IE8, FF 3.6, Chrome 5, Safari 5 - the big 5

I need people to test in older browsers,

here is the test page, don't follow any links as you will go to pages that don't use the same javascript, just scroll and hover

It is designed to be a drop in replacement for the existing jscript, although I still have to remove some debugging code and clean a few bits up, so don't use on a live site yet

Cheers for that, i also have an old mac, that i was about to dig out, but you have saved me the bother,

regarding IE 5.2
did the original image handler work with it? - I am not to worried about it but my changes shouldn't have effected IE or Firefox support

Anyway I have just tested in Opera 9 and it works fine
In Opera 8.5 it works but not perfectly (at the bottom of the page the hover can go off the page, but you just scroll to see it, anyway at least it works )

IE6 seems to work as well

Nope, nada zilch no IH2 effects at all and when it opened the image it took a bit.

Cheers that means i didn't break anything, I did try to write it to avoid breaking existing support for browsers
