Is there a way to list item_options rather than select or input?
Thanks

you want to output them as a UL list element?

If your item_option field name is “product_size”
{product_size} < input name = "item_option[product_size]" /> {option_name} $ {price} {option} < br /> { / product_size}

Use the field name as a variable pair. there are 3 variables available within that variable pair; option_name, price, option.
{product_size : label} has {product_size : option_count} options available : option_count} < input name = "item_option[product_size]" /> {option_name} $ {price} {option} < br /> { / product_size} / if}
There are also 2 pseudo variables that can be used anywhere in your weblog entries loops: YOUR_FIELD_NAME:option_count, and YOUR_FIELD_NAME:label. I believe you could have used YOUR_FIELD_NAME:option_count the other day… I forgot we even had that one. Man, I really need to go over our documentation with a fine tooth comb. Real world use has shown us some holes.

Right now I have this:
{item_options : select : options} < option value = "{option}" > {option_name} {price} </ option > { / item_options : select : options}
and it works great as a normal dropdown.
How would I edit it to use <ul><li> tags to do a suckerfish like dropdown?

< ul > {options} < li class= "my_options" id = "{option}" > {option_name} {price} </ li > { / options} </ ul > input id = "my_id_whatevs" type = "hidden" name = "item_options[options]" value = "" />
You’d have to use jQuery/javascript to then set a hidden input field somewhere based on what’s clicked.
jQuery ( document ). ready (function($) { $( ".my_options" ). click (function() { var selected_value =$( this ). attr ( "id" ); "#my_id_whatevs" ). val ( selected_value ); } );
Something like that anyway.

You want to get the quantity of each option?

yes.—or is that a multi add to cart—but it really isn’t different products, just variations of the one product.

add_to_cart_form only works on adding one item at a time. Only one variation at a time. With multi_add_to_cart form you can add multiple products
{exp : cartthrob : multi_add_to_cart_form return= "cart/view_cart" } : weblog : entries weblog = "products" category = "10" } < input type = "hidden" name = "entry_id[{count}]" value = "{entry_id}" /> input type = "text" name = "quantity[{count}]" value = "1" /> input type = "text" name = "item_options[{count}][option_name]" value = "whatevs" /> { / exp : weblog : entries} / exp : cartthrob : multi_add_to_cart_form}

I would think the same as above… but maybe you have something else in mind. Do you have a comp of what you want the user experience to be?

it looks like you wouldn’t be adding more than one item at a time to the cart… just one configured item with quantity. right?
You might be interested in some sample ajax stuff we have: http://www.cartthrob.net/ajax_examples/add_to_cart

Yep…I don’t know if they even need to add more than one thing at a time. I just need to be able to do that dropdown thing.
