Hard Coding Product Info.php

[d4funky1]

Hi,

 

I am looking to add some permanent information for each nd every product within my store and a suggestion of hard coding this info into the product_info.php page has arose.

 

Please take a look at the page from my site for example:

 

My Webpage

 

I would like to add 2-3 boxes underneath the reviews & add to cart buttons that would highlight postage, care instructions etc.

 

Can anyone point out whereabouts in the product_info.php file i should start this?

 

Many Thanks

D4

In that file, find this code

	if ($reviews['count'] > 0) {
?>
  <tr>
	<td class="main"><?php echo TEXT_CURRENT_REVIEWS . ' ' . $reviews['count']; ?></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
	<td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>
  </tr>
<?php
}

and place your code after it as

<tr>
<td>something goes here</td>
</tr>

Just tried that and got an error message:

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /catalog/product_info.php on line 201

 

Line 201 being where i inserted the example code:

 

<tr>
<td>something goes here</td>
</tr>

 

Right after the:

 

	if ($reviews['count'] > 0) {
?>
  <tr>
	<td class="main"><?php echo TEXT_CURRENT_REVIEWS . ' ' . $reviews['count']; ?></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
	<td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>
  </tr>
<?php
}

 

as suggested??

 

Any ideas?

try putting a ?> on the next line after the curly bracket then put in your code after it remember to enclose your php code within the php tags and to close the tags when moving back to html things can get confusing but should be fairly straightforward once you get the hang of it.

ok,

 

I've managed it to a degree, however I seem to be struggling with incorporating it with the style of the page.

 

Do i need to add the stylesheet to this somehow???

 

Not sure what to do here? Take a look Here

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Here's the code i've used to accomplish what you see in the link:

 

?>
<table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
 <tr> 
<td colspan="3"><font size="-1">Costume Sizes - Adults<br>
  <br>
  Most of our adult costumes come in one of two fittings. Standard or Extra 
  Large. These fittings will typically span a range of sizes. Most costumes 
  will have an elasticated waistline or similar design attribute as an adjustment 
  to give a more fitted definition while wearing. It is important to note 
  that unlike fashion designs, fancy dress is designed in a way to fit as 
  broad a range as possible within one fitting. It is therefore possible that 
  your purchase may not be an exact fit and should be thought of as a fun 
  garment.</font></td>
 </tr>
 <tr> 
<td><p><font size="-1"><strong><br>
	Fitting</strong></font></p>
  <p><font size="-1">Standard</font></p>
  <p> </p>
  <p> </p>
  <p><font size="-1">Extra Large</font></p>
  <p> </p></td>
<td><p><font size="-1"><strong><br>
	Ladies</strong></font></p>
  <p><font size="-1">Dress Size: 10 to 14</font></p>
  <p> </p>
  <p> </p>
  <p><font size="-1">Dress Size: 16 to 20</font></p>
  <p> </p></td>
<td><p><font size="-1"><strong><br>
	Gentlemen</strong></font></p>
  <p><font size="-1">Chest: 38" to 42"<br>
	Waist: 30" to 34"<br>
	Inside Leg: 30"</font></p>
  <p> </p>
  <p><font size="-1">Chest: 44" to 48"<br>
	Waist: 36" to 40"<br>
	Inside Leg: 32"</font></p></td>
 </tr>
</table>
<?php

hmmm, why don't you put all this as a text definition in the product info language file (you can put html here in the same way), then call it up like with an echo statement similar to the reviews line.

 

it might be a lot better than messing around with the main product_info file.

 

i think the problem is caused due to the tables nesting, try it without the table tag to see what happens

Okay,

 

It's pretty much done but still got some alignment issues.

 

Please take a look at the link:

 

Here

 

Here's the code i've used to achieve this:

 

?>
	<tr> 
	  <td colspan="3" align="left" class="smallText">Costume Sizes - Adults<br> 
		<br>
		Most of our adult costumes come in standard or extra large. These 
		will typically span a range of sizes. Most costumes will have an elasticated 
		waistline or a similar adjustable attribute to give a more fitted 
		definition while wearing. It is important to note that <strong>fancy 
		dress</strong> is designed in a way to fit as broad a range as possible 
		within one size. It is therefore possible that your costume may not 
		be an exact fit and should be thought of as a fun garment.</font></td>
	</tr>
	<tr> 
	  <td width="104" align="left" valign="top" class="smallText"><strong><br>
		Fitting</strong></p> <p>Standard</p>
		<p> </p>
		<p> </p>
		<p>Extra Large</p>
		<p> </p>
		<p> </p></td>
	  <td width="186" align="left" valign="top" class="smallText"><p><br>
		  <strong>Ladies</strong></p>
		<p>Dress Size: 10 to 14</p>
		<p> </p>
		<p> </p>
		<p>Dress Size: 16 to 20</p>
		</td>
	  <td width="190" align="left" valign="top" class="smallText"><p><br>
		  <strong>Gentlemen</strong></p>
		<p>Chest: 38" to 42"<br>
		  Waist: 30" to 34"<br>
		  Inside Leg: 30"</p>
		<p> </p>
		<p>Chest: 44" to 48"<br>
		  Waist: 36" to 40"<br>
		  Inside Leg: 32"</p></td>
	</tr>
  </table>
<?php

 

Can anyone point out the obvious for me as I can't see for looking :blush:

 

Many Thanks

[d4funky1]

I've cracked it!!! :D

 

Just removed the

</table>

on the second to last line as there was no

<table>

instruction within the php commands.

 

Yippee!!!

 

Take a look http://www.fancydressretail.co.uk/catalog/...products_id=223

 

Thanks to c_karsan & Jack_mcs who helped with this.
