size chart popup window question ('solved' by workaround)

Post by max2tall » Wed Mar 13, 2013 7:47 pm

Hi, (using OC 1.5.4.1 & Shoppica 2)

I've made images for size charts & added a link in product description to have it popup on products page.

see e.g. http://www.babyplace.com.sg/ocs/index.p ... uct_id=118

click on 'size chart' & a new window appears ok.

My question is: how do I make the popup show more like a picture than a windows window... without all the browser stuff around it; like the images I see on many sites (but not the 'blanket' effect).

Especially the way the popup goes away when you click on the main page, rather than having to close the new window.

I am not a programmer; is there some way to do it from within the ckeditor?

Thanks

Why don't you use this module instead?

It's easier & cleaner I guess

Btw, I'm from SG too! Cheers!

'misquoting' huh

So we have some progress, but it's coming up as a full new window now,
see http://www.babyplace.com.sg/ocs/index.p ... uct_id=118
your new version is below my hopefully soon to be deleted old version.
How do I make it a small borderless image positioned like my old version & go away all by itself when I click on the main page pls ?
Thanks for holding my hand on this grgr

Hello dear,

I'm still in the midst of a 2013 revamp! Haha!
Wanna give the best to my customers before re-launching again..
I always set a time aside every year to revamp the webby

Btw hun, another way to work around this is to add the size chart as a picture so customers can just click on the picture to see, instead of putting it in description? I mean this could be the last resort if things can't get working for you.

Cheers!

Hi grgr

still just makes a new page.

Here's the code added into header.tpl

code added to header position - in header.png (10.36 KiB) Viewed 3330 times

here's the ckeditor source view:

I guess there needs to be some "left=800; etc " type stuff somewhere right? I've no idea how, I've looked around & just get confused.
hope you're still up for this.

@ yinyin: thanks, but no, doing that puts all the ugly tabs & stuff back in again that I took out.

update:

totally fedup & given up. What should be a simple thing requires ridiculous amount of programming.

Have taken your idea yinyin after all, by selecting 'images under preview' instead of in separate tab (didn't know I could do that before the job gets done quickly & easily YAY & Thanks

& thanks for your efforts grgr
