[1.5]Disable ajax add to cart?

Hey can anyone help me out here?

I want to disable the ajax checkout in opencart 1.5.

I want the user to go straight to checkout when they add to cart.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

ajax checkout? You mean ajax add to cart? THere should be a setting in the main settings

Yes, I mean the ajax add to cart... I have looked all over the admin dashboard for it and I can't find the option to turn it off.

I also cannot find it anymore in 1.5. It was in Cart module in 1.4.x. Now there is no such module- the cart is in the header.

The reason why i am looking to remove the ajax is - I have added modified the header.tpl to show icon instead of text and the text display as tooltip: The problem is that after adding a product via ajax - this is changed back to the default and the icon is dissapeared, still the tooltip stays with the old cart information: I see the solution by removing the ajax add to cart, but cannot find it.
Another option would be to chang the callback function, but i do not know where to find it.

I am using 1.5.0.5

Hi, this is my first post anyways, today I've spent an hour or so to find a solution on how to redirect a client to the cart page when pressed "add to cart".

I'm using 1.5.0.5v, there is no way to do it from the admin panel like in earlier versions.

I have seen different php based solutions that haven't worked for me, so I came with my own javascript based solution.

The idea is very simple. You just have to append a redirect command to onclick event.

instead of
use
or (not tested yet) if there are no onclick event, just add one with the redirect, or just add the redirect at the end of the addToCart function

There is a little problem with this method. Sometimes the redirect works faster than the ajax add to cart code, it does add a product to cart, but when you get to the carts page you don't see the product until you refresh. To solve this you can use setTimeout().

add to common.js function
and instead of
use

There is a little problem with the latest code, it works BUT when there are required fields it still directs them to the cart, just empty instead of giving them an error code on the product page. Any idea how to fix that?

If you haven't tested your code yet, then why in heaven's name do you post it?
