mmstoned Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I've found a contribution that will allow me to replace a drop-down with a text field for the product attributes. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...arch,text+field I want to use the text field so somebody can enter the length of cable that they'd like to purchase and have that multiplied by the unit cost. Does anybody know if this will do that or will it just carry the entry in the text field over to the order form? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥geoffreywalton Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Could you not add a qty box rather than attributes? Loads of contributions out there to do that.

mmstoned Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 I didn't even know that they existed. Sounds like it would. Is there one in particular that you would recommend? My client wants a user to be able to choose the lenght of a cable and add connectors on both ends as options. So the cable end options would need to be added in only once per cable. Would a contribution that you metioned permit that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmstoned Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 I installed a contribution that did add the quantity text box after the product description. Unfortunately, it won't work a i need out of the box. Since it is a field for the "product quantity" if any options are added they are added for the nuber of items in the quantity box. Which is the way it should work. What I want to do is use that for a "length" variable and have the options, if selected, be added per length. This would also allow the user order mutliple cables of the same lenght with the same options. Is there anyway to accomplish this by modifiying the contribution? I used this contribution http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5533 Thanks again and Happy New Year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
