More than one add to cart buttons on a product page
by Mukesh Agarwal 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Hi, Is there a way I can create multiple add to cart buttons on my product page, one for each attribute? With an attribute you have options like select, radio, checkboxes, etc, my question is what would it take to have add to cart buttons for each attribute. I would be more than happy to work on a patch for the same but I did not want to hack the core ubercart module. There are a lot of use cases for this as it is sometimes important to highlight all your attributes in a unique way. Any suggestions help will be appreciated. Cheers, Mukesh

Enabling jquery/AJAX (unknow is not a function)
by Tim Johnson 02 Mar '13

02 Mar '13

Using drupal 7.16 on Mac OSX 107, bitnami install. I have created a test page with just the following : [code] <DIV ID="content"></DIV> <a href="#" onclick="$('#content').load('http://localhost/cgi-bin/cgitest.py');">Take me away</a> [/code] When I click on the rendered link, I get the following javascript error: "Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function onclick" from Chrome. Being a drupal noob but familiar with javascript issues in CGI programming, I infer that the jquery code for 'load' et al is not being sourced and that perhaps the correct module is not enabled? I have derived this from the example shown at http://drupal.org/node/305747 NOTE : I have enabled the drupal ajax examples. None can illuminate this problem for me. Any help would be appreciate: thanks -- Tim tim at tee jay forty nine dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com

Form submission problem
by Ms. Nancy Wichmann 01 Feb '13

01 Feb '13

In a module, I am using drupal_get_form() to load a form from a .inc file. That works fine. But when it is submitted, the submission handler can't be found; it's also in the .inc file. How do I get around this? Nancy

Many many modules

I have inherited a fairly complex site with a boat load of modules installed (many disabled). Is there a simple way of finding out what modules are actually being used? -- Al Sessions http://o <http://420summit.com>ld-cards.com

Hello everyone, I've got a problem with Nice menus. The drop down menus increase the length of the block. Also, the menus do not disappear on mouse out. Any suggestions please?

I have just implemented this. It works as advertised! FYI: I have clients and potential clients that are 1)Paranoid - citing good reason 2)Extremely security conscious - citing good reason 3)Suspicious of PHP - http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Rasmus_Lerdorf doesn't help things. 4)Suspicious of CMS systems. (drupal, however - regardless of the core language is well spoken of by members of the same community, one of the reasons I chose to learn it) This module is going to help me overcome much of the above. Furthermore it is illustrative of drupal's rich store of resources. I included the enumerated items not to encourage controversy but to point out the push back that I am working to overcome. :) I'm not as paranoid as they are.... Thanks again for the support.

Use 1 database for 2 installs

Understanding the 'user' node
by Tim Johnson 29 Jan '13

29 Jan '13

I have removed the login block from a website, using the following method : Home » Administration » Structure » Blocks Select "Show block on specific pages" -> "Only the listed pages" And as per documentation entered "user". Works great, but someone could still tamper with my website by an easy guess (especially if they were familiar with drupal) and try to hack their way in. I created a page with a path alias of "hubris". The page shows when I am logged in as admin, but if I log out and request the page I get a "Page Not Found Error" but I do get the login block. Could anyone tell me why I'm getting the error message. thanks -- Tim tim at tee jay forty nine dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com
