Extended Info without Pop ups

[namunday]

what is the best way of creating extended infomation pages without using pop ups, similar to http://www.jewellery247.co.uk/acatal...eel_Rings.html

Hi there

Rather than using extended information, you could use Information Link text, and link to another product which could be a duplicate or a fragment.

Kind Regards

I think they are using my patch from http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=6882&

all that seems to do is open a bard page with the extended information. i understand i can adapt the template to look like the rest of the site but how would i add item specific information to each template like they have at jewellery247

They seem to have used the patch I mentioned and are using an Extended Info Template that's based on their Primary Template.

That's quite a big job that will require some skill to implement but basically you replace the NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTBODY (in the Primary Template copy) with the Product Template code (based on a normal product template).

I am sorry norman, what patch is it that you mentioned

[NormanRouxel]

It's in the link 4 items above. The relevant bit is

If you go to Design / Text / Go to / Phase -1, ID 2175 - you will find the popup call.

javascript:ShowPopUp('%s',%s,%s);

if you replace all the above with just

%s


Then Text Lnks or making the product image clickable to go to the Extended Info pages will now be normal links and the extended info pages will now open in the current browser.

Don't use the Extended Info Button option as it will fail.

You'll also have to add something to the extended info template so that there's some navigation available to get you back to the previous page.
