Is This Possible With Zen Cart?

I am considering using Zen Cart for a new online store I am creating as I have used it in the past but Im not sure if what I need it to do is even possible?

I have created a "roomset" where a user click on the title of a room in a house, i.e. Bedroom or Lounge. The walls have been given a transparent effect. The image of either the bedroom or lounge loads in a div tag.

The <div> tags background image (wallpaper styles) can be changed by clicking on a thumbnail. Showing through the transparency of the image it appears as though the room has had a wallpaper applied.

See my draft example below:

Hopefully you follow how Ive done this effect. The background image is only a thumbnail which is tiled. So my question is:

Using osCommerce's thumbnails could I somehow mod the code to work with the roomset idea exampled above? A quick mockup of how I pictured it looking is shown below to hopefully help people understand:

When a thumbnail is clicked it is applied as the background image of the Div tag.

Many THanks,
Will

Re: Is This Possible With Zen Cart?

This looks to be a very nice implementation using a bit of js to swap, there is also a pure css swap routine that could be applied.

Making all this capable will require a bit more coding than for what is more normal but will result in an extremely nice adaptation of the cart.

You might check the downloads here for the swap image modules and hijack the code for your purposes.as this might prove to be more direct than porting the osc code.
