Tried to customize Quick Look Button Text Label using html tags to introduce color for each word. The text QuickLook does display in color but I have difficulty clicking on it.

You could change the color of the entire phrase "Quick Look" by doing something like this (and removing the "font" tags):

Code:
.productQuickLook_link, .productQuickLook_hover {
color: green;
}


To color each word differently, try changing your code to something like:

Code:
<span style="color: red;">Quick</span><span style="color: green;">Look</span>

The first solution(one color) works fine.
The second solution (two colors) does not work because the system does not allow quotes in the text field.

Try apostrophe instead of double quote

First solution displays QuickLook in the color I specify and works fine when I ckick on it.

Apostrophe makes QuickLook display in the colors I specified, but I still have the same problem as I had initially using <font ..>
See http://www.giftsofart.com/CYbambooGrapes.HTM
I will keep for a while so you can see how it behaves.

Zeev,

I will suggest that you don't put any HTML tags for the "Quick Look" label. Just leave it as a plain text and play with the .productQuickLook_link and .productQuickLook_hover if you want to make the whole thing a different color or even have an image with whatever colors.

If you put HTML tags then IE has problems with the mouse hover that are more difficult to solve and the QuickLook may not work properly with IE.

Zeev,

Would you mind giving me the whole code of where you implemented the quick look function? I followed your advise adding the keyword auto..... in my brief description and it would work.

Ed told me my site don't use the right script for his code to work, so I would have to wait for his solution.

I want to see the sample code for SF website of "coin collection" that got the quick look function work.

I really like this feature, but until now my website www.boaterbarn.com show the quick look button all the time, not like when you hover over, it show the button.

Thanks

Don

I just see one more weird thing about my website. When you go to the homepage: www.boaterbarn.com. You see that button quick look there all the time. But then when you go to the filter on the left and select any manufacturer, then it will show products in that manufacturer and if you hover over the pictures, it will show that quick look button correctly! But then when you want to click on that quick look button, it flashed twice and disappeared?????

Anyone know what's wrong? Atleast I know I am getting a little bit close!Smile

Thanks

Don

You are generating product images using your own construction code. To allow the Quick Look button to be attached to the image, you need to give the image appropriate id like this:

<div class="product_img"><a href="AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_URL_DETAILED"><img id="img_product_small_AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_ID" src="AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_IMAGE_BIG_URL" alt="AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_NAME_ONLY" title="AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_NAME_ONLY" border="0" width="125"></a></div>

I changed your "Marines Product Template" like that and generated this page
http://www.boaterbarn.com/battery_pack.htm
However there are some problems with the mouse over. I will ask our Quick Look developer to look at it.

Very cool, thanks so much for your help Stan!

Yeah, that quick look button doing what I described as above, flashed twice and disappeared.

Thanks again Stan for your help.

Don,

I found that you were using twice the same AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_QUICK_LOOK keyword in the template that caused that strange behaviour.

I removed one of them and regenerated that particular category. All works perfect for me now. Try it at

http://www.boaterbarn.com/battery_pack.htm

Please be more careful as this caused us to investigate for some time.

Stan,

I am sincerely apologize about that. I must have forgot to remove the old code as I tried different experiments on this function.

Thank you and your team very much for helping me out.

Don

Stan,

Can you please notice at the sitemap step of generation? Does it stop at all when you do it? It seem taking very long time on that step for me. And always stuck at the end, but I still get a finished generation status when I check.

Thanks

Don

Yes, sitemap was slow because you have close to 27K products and the site map is big. I was able to reach the 56590 mark and it stopped. It looks like it is at the end, but it does not indicate a completion. I cannot comment as this must be a server issue.

Oh, it just completed successfully. It stayed for a while on the 56590th generation page, but it ended.

Here is the result: Successfully generated 56596 files

Yeah, for me it just stuck there. But when I check by clicking on generation button, it would tell me last successful generation is (and give me the time it successfully). I usually check after generation and it seem to completed the generation job.

Thanks for your help on this.

Don

I already figuire it out. The hover effect for the quicklook will only be applied if you add an ID with the value of img_product_small_AUTO_GENERATED_PRODUCT_ID to the image of Brief Template for category template. Everything works perfectly

Regards
