Product Listing Product Quick View Feature

I am looking to add a Quick View Feature to my product listing page.

Has anyone attempted this?

Anyone have a suggestive direction for adding this to the Product Listing Page?

Anyone have interest in this feature?

We'd have to know what you mean by 'Quick View'.

A "Quick View" of the product details

A popup with the full description, additional images, details, reviews, attributes, ect.

Allow browser to basically take a full look at the product without leaving product listing page.

Hope I explained it well enough.

One site I saw doing this is w a l m a r t . c o m

I think this one might require hiring someone to complete it. Let me know if you eventually want it that bad and I might help pitch in some funds to get it done.

Actually I am doing it myself, I have accomplished the majority of it but have a few things to finish.

only tested in FF as of now.

I decided to go a different route, I did not go with a popup window but a popup div instead.

Still have some kinks to work out and also want to add additional images to the quick view.

Just hover over Quick View

Open to opinions and/or suggestions!

IE Sucks, have some minor changes to make their!

Looking pretty interesting.

Very nice, getting attributes and all on demand in the listing page!

Would be great if you could share this when it's done.
I would definitely add it to my site - great feature.

For your items with plain text descriptions, it appears to be working perfectly in Chrome and Firefox. For items using html in the desciption it produces the coding. As you already noted, it is hinky in IE8.

Super cool!

Still a long way away from offering as an add-on.

Super cool!

html descriptions will be the easy fix, I am confident changing to div's will fix 75% of the layout issues in IE.

Thank you everyone for you input and I will keep everyone updated with my progress.

I've also started this mod but with the use of fancybox. Seems to be working in all modern browsers and degrades nicely. See the other quick view thread.

Very Cool, seems we were thinking the same thing!

Do you have a URL so we can see it in action?

UPDATE
The Quick View Feature now displays correctly in FF, Chrome & IE8

TODO

• Fix HTML Descriptions
• Clean up display of Quick View div
• Additional Product Images
• Admin on/off switch for Name, Description, Image, Reviews, ect.
  **WISHLIST
  **An endless amount of time!

UPDATE

• Fix HTML Descriptions (DONE)
• Clean up display of Quick View div(DONE)
• Admin on/off switch for Attributes, Product URL & Ratings(DONE)
  Adding the Products Additional Images is going to take allot of nifty coding (I will see what I can do tho)

See it in ACTION

Here's what I've done so far... haven't got it to work in IE8 yet. just tested it tonight and it didnt work. It degraded to not showing anything. I also made some other changes to my css and messed up a lot so dont mind the mess. but Check it out...
