link from text to an image

[otiz]

can someone show me how to link my component text to an image so customers can see product before they tick the box.

Also can i add a checkout button next to add to basket?

i have seen it done on another site using Act V7

thanks

Keep these images in PreviewHTML (therwise they won't show on the Preview).

Then just put something like

<img src="componentimage.jpg">ComponentName

into the HTML for Name field of said component.

You'll have to upload the image via Advanced / Additional Files.

Hi Norman

Is that the code they have used for this below

as you see there is a link on the text to a pop up image?, they also have a checkout button below the description which i would quite like.

Thanks

I've no idea. We can only see the generated HTML, not how they did it. You could always ask them.

However there's nothing to stop you putting the popup page ShowPopUp link (or anything else) into the HTML for name field. You'd have to go to each Component Product and see what the popup page is called.

Thanks Norman

Being a complete HTML novice can you give me the code i would need to put in the HTML box that would generate a popup window when text is clicked
or was the answer "no idea"

I notice also they have "Don't forget to add the essential accessories below for the full effect" just before the componenets, again complete novice i would liek to add "Complete The Look" before my components, where does this text go?


Thanks

Well I had given you an answer here http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=24113 - but now I see you are asking this question about v7 rather than v8.

To get this to work in v7 you will need to manually create the additional information pages, and then upload them via 'Advanced | Additional Files'

Then adapt the code in the solution I mention in the Advanced User Guide to create a link to your extra pages and use this code within the 'HTML for Name' field of the components.
