I am looking to build something that I could use in a shopping cart like magento or opencart or even woocommerce. I could go to a developer had have them build everything but want to try and do some of the easier parts first to get a working sample to show the client. They want a product builder that will display a pic of truck with different parts on the front of the truck based on selections from a drop menu or links of some sort. So not even sure what terms to search for on this but I want to display an image in a div based on the selection of several drop menus. For example the first selection would be make and they choose a make like chevy, ford or dodge and that would display the front of a chevy, ford or dodge vehicle. Then they would choose a selection from a second drop down menu and this would add a second image to the div. I don't want to replace the current image but add another transparent .png image so it sits on another layer above. This way I can build and add layers to the image based on selections from a drop down menu. Any tips or links to a working script would be appreciated, Thanks!!
Ok for automotive parts and I guess your in the 100k+ area these types of menus are physically possible but in practice they will not work because of the load in terms of serving up jscript and images. Are you just thinking at a category level, if so then it would work, but not at a product level.
This is just a quick example but you could bind a dropdown to a div that has been layered over others. http://jsfiddle.net/fg769/3/ Note: just a rough draft with images pulled from a image search (all different sizes). Yours would likely be alot better positioned to overlay correctly. Let me know if I can help further
Actually this is just going to be for truck grilles so not that many options/variables. Got a quote from a local company where a friends relative works and they want 20k
Yes!! Just what I needed, I will see what I can do with this and maybe post back what I come up with using some of my images. Thanks AC!!!
