I need to have a per Product text field just below the Add to Cart button area and then have that displayed on the Checkout screen and saved in the database.
I have the display all setup by adding one line of code to
catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl at line 100.
<input type="text" name="product_COMMENT" value="TEST7" size="30" />
but now i need to store the text and display it later in the checkout for.
I am a PHP and js programmer but new to the MVPL framework though i like it as i study it.
Any thoughts? i need guidance.

just to fibihs my thoughts:
i think this would be a good feature to have for a future release. although the Options feature is great sometimes a customer just needs to request something not available in a drop-down box.
I am working on a restaurant app and online orders need to request multiple toppings on dishes or extra sauce.

I'm currently looking at porting my shop to zen-cart as I can't find a way to have a text box that's linked to a dropdown (ie. you have a dropdown that says "do you want a design - yes/no" and if you say yes checks whether you've put something in a text box. Similarly it needs to check if you have something in the text box that the design pulldown is "yes") - can you do that in conjunction with this module easily?

Well you could hack that module to work that way I'm sure, but easily will depend on your level of php knowledge, but last I checked zencart doesn't have anything like this either, so I don't see where moving to that will help you much.

Its redundant to have a yes/no box for a text box. but the dropdown would just be a javascript trigger. The textbox would have the real field data.
readyman has a text options mod that will do this. If you really want to include the superfluous yes/no option, you can add that on top of his mod.
