Replicate Other Info Promp Entry

[kernock]

Can anyone help...

I am trying to create an area on my site where the customer can enter text into an other info prompt (multiple) and have their entry replicated into a taple cell (which has an image in the background) to show the customer what the final result will look like...

I would also like to have the users options (from a drop down list) displayed in the same way.

Has anyone ever attempted this before or does anyone know if this is possible

Any help on this would be greatly apreciated.

Thanks in advance

The long lost Gary Hay did something similar I recal using flash. Norman at www.drillpine.biz has an upload facility that allows users to upload a photo and that is merged into a background template - this may be of use or could be modified accordingly

If you're wanting to copy user defined text to impose over a product image - a t-shirt for example - this would be relatively easy with Javascript. You could then use drop-down lists to change the text font, size etc. What kind of product are you wanting to do this with, and how many options would be involved?

Firstly thanks for the response...

The options in question are Greeting Cards with optional text

I would like the option from the dropdown list of possible phrases and the optional text from the multiple other info prompts (probably 3) to be displayed on the product image.

Any ideas?

This can be achieved as mentioned above with JavaScript. You'd need to use the onkeypress or onblur events in each of the info fields to pick up these field values, assemble them into HTML and write them to the innerHTML property of the table cell that's got the background image.

It's easy to say in one sentence but requires quite advanced JavaScript skills to actually implement.
