dforce Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Hello everybody. I have been building a website that is basically used for Content Management which i have used oscommerce as it has everything you could possible need and works perfect. Now the problem i have is this. Instead of the contact_us form being on its own page i need it to be on the left coloumn instead. I can have the left coloumn any width i like so space is not an issue. Does anybody have any ideas on how to do this. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thank You Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhande Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Hey Dean, I haven't tried anything like this nor am I an expert with PHP, but I'll give it an educated guess. NOTE: Backup your current files before making any changes!!! Open catalog\includes\column_left.php (remember - make a backup!) I don't know if you are using any infoboxes or not, but try the below code where you want the contact info to display. Guess 1: <?php require(FILENAME_CONTACT_US); ?> Guess 2: <tr><td><?php include(FILENAME_CONTACT_US); ?></td></tr> Now open catalog\contact_us.php (remember - make a backup!) Leave this code that's at the top of the file, deleting everything else: <?php /* $Id: contact_us.php,v 1.42 2003/06/12 12:17:07 hpdl Exp $ osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions [url="http://www.oscommerce.com"]http://www.oscommerce.com[/url] Copyright (c) 2003 osCommerce Released under the GNU General Public License */ require('includes/application_top.php'); require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_CONTACT_US); ?> <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html <?php echo HTML_PARAMS; ?>> <base href="<?php echo (($request_type == 'SSL') ? HTTPS_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER) . DIR_WS_CATALOG; ?>"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css"> </head> <body> Delete everything below it until this (unless you're using a captcha code, leave that) : <!-- body_text //--> Delete everything below this: <!-- body_text_eof //--> But leave this at the bottom: </body> </html> <?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'application_bottom.php'); ?> You might need to make adjustments to different table elements (such as width) in the contact_us.php file. Like I said, I'm not positive I have the correct calls (code) but it might be a starting point. - :: Jim :: - - My Toolbox ~ Adobe Web Bundle, XAMPP & WinMerge | Install ~ osC v2.3.3.4 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhande Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 You are welcome Dean! Just remember, I am only guessing. You might have to make some adjustments. Let me know how you make out. - :: Jim :: - - My Toolbox ~ Adobe Web Bundle, XAMPP & WinMerge | Install ~ osC v2.3.3.4 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
