Add Help Button In Front of Attribute Option Name

It did have a few funky result that I'm just working around, such as when I go back in to edit option name the code/link must be reentered each time you go into edit that option name
--->
A ZC potential bug, I remember I had to change the code a bit for this, dont remember much tho.

Re: Add Help Button In Front of Attribute Option Name

what is phpMyAdmin?
another program?
or somewhere in the admin side of the site?

Ap,
www.your_web_site.com/cpanel

  1. this is a control panel from your server (web host provider)
  2. Of course you will log in
  3. There are many headings: Look for: Databases and you will see phpMyAdmin

Re: Add Help Button In Front of Attribute Option Name

Oh- I did not know that was there. Actually, I am on GoDaddy and found it through my account stuff. I had to download the program- so will have to install it. I thought I coud set the number of characters in the style sheet or one of the files.

You mean GoDaddy doesn't provide phpMyAdmin by default? That would definitely be an indication of the market they intend to serve - nobody who expects their customers to seriously use databases would leave that out.

But they are nice enough to grant you remote access to your database.:P

Re: Add Help Button In Front of Attribute Option Name

I was going to check with GoDaddy before I installed anything. I do believe I already have access. Just have to find out how to get there. I know I've seen an icon that says MyPhp ... Duh... I'll learn this stuff yet!
thanks you guys- I really love this Zen Cart. I am uploading art products to the gallery now...:artist:
(ps... I'd rather be painting...)

Re: Add Help Button In Front of Attribute Option Name

I tried putting a link in the attribute option name and its not working for me. The link put in Option Name Manager is:

Test Link<a href="#" onclick="return false" onmouseover="ajax_showTooltip(window.event,'help/product_page/test_help.html',this);return false" onmouseout="ajax_hideTooltip()"> (?)</a>

When I try to add a value to this option in Option Name Manager by selecting the option, it is displayed in the dropdown as:

(?)" value="18">Test Link (?)

Then if I add this, it is listed in Option Value Manager but under the option name field it is blank.

Finally in Attribute controller it does not show up at all.

Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this?
