Product Attributes CheckBox

[michael_s]

This quick and simple mod allows you to use checkbox for product attribute selection on your products page instead of the default drop down list.
This contribution makes a new tep function which can be used in place of the existing function and is called once from products_info.php.

You can customise the table layout for your checkbox as you like.

Screenshot included
Tested on a fresh install of RC2a

Should take about 30 seconds to install.

for this mod, would you happen to know what i would have to change in product_info.tpl?

this is the code that was changed and i was trying to play around with it to make it work but unfortunately had no luck:

<?php

    $products_attributes_query = tep_db_query("select count(*) as total from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_OPTIONS . " popt, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . " patrib where patrib.products_id='" . (int)$HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'] . "' and patrib.options_id = popt.products_options_id and popt.language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "'");

    $products_attributes = tep_db_fetch_array($products_attributes_query);

    if ($products_attributes['total'] > 0) {

//++++ QT Pro: Begin Changed code

      $products_id=(preg_match("/^d{1,10}({d{1,10}}d{1,10})*$/",$HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id']) ? $HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'] : (int)$HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id']); 

      require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'pad_' . PRODINFO_ATTRIBUTE_PLUGIN . '.php');

      $class = 'pad_' . PRODINFO_ATTRIBUTE_PLUGIN;

      $pad = new $class($products_id);

      echo $pad->draw();

//++++ QT Pro: End Changed Code

    }

?>
