Your Javascript is not in that file. Look at the page source for that frame in your browser.

Thanks Jim,

great and usefull contribution!

But...

1.How to remove the play-stop button over the images??? (I want to remove the button, only images)

2.In banner manager if I insert a link url, then clicking in rotator always goes to the index page.

3.How lo align the diferent images of the rotator banner to the center??? (With diferent images of diferent sizes they are aligned to the left)

Regards.

1. Don't do that; you'll annoy your customers, and some may leave.

2. Not on my test site. Look at the URL in your browser -- is it correct? This function uses the osCommerce redirect function; have you made any changes to that? Are you using a URL rewriter?

3. The images have to float left for this to work. I recommend that you make all of them the same size. You can always add to the image width with a graphics program.

1. ok. is because the stop-play button sometimes stay infront of the text or the price of the banner and hide them. I will try repositing the button to one corner.
2. Yes, using URL rewrite in httaccess. I will remove the htlm links.
3. normaly using clasic 468px × 60px, but for your new contrib I use an extralarge 650px × 80px bann. I don't want to break your new contrib but i think the stop-play button is a nuisance thing. I will try to changing it more transparent.


Thanks for all.

1. Either move the controls or redesign the banners. You can also size the banner box so that the controls sit just below the banner.

2. URL rewriters cause a lot of problems. Any decent rewriter should work with the osCommerce redirect code. You should get rid of the rewriter or use one that works properly.

3. The buttons were a requirement for me. I find the lack of controls to be extremely annoying. If you really want a rotator without controls, there are plenty of scripts out there that you can use.

Hi,

I have a strange problem wit this.

I have the contribution up and running great on one site

On my other site I get errors relating to line 50 of modules/banner_rotator.php

	 tep_update_banner_display_count( $banner['banners_id'] );

Quote

Fatal error: Call to undefined function tep_update_

The banner displays and changes over on the home page, but the remainder of the home page fails to load.

if I comment out the line of code the page loads ok, but then I get errors relating to page re-directs when I click the banner.

Also for some reason I have to comment out line 422 of my application top

$navigation->add_current_page();

after installing the contribution, or nothing loads.

any Ideas?

Thanks

What are the differences between the two sites? Is the one giving you trouble running an older version of osC?

The $navigation problem could be this session bug. It wouldn't hurt to fix that anyway, if you haven't already.

First of all I wanne say its an awsome script!!

Allthough I've got some little problems I cannot solve
I'm using the banner rotator on several sites and always see a difference in the banner control button (Firefox/IE) In Firefox the edges of the control button box are round shapped while in IE it's a box.

Thats not a very big issue though but well. The second thing is on one of our sites the banner isnt rotating :S

In Firefox it rotates from banner1 to banner2 and then it stops I allso cant control the banner with the little buttons.
In IE nothing happens at all!

I have installed/configured all the files the right way I'm 100% sure of that. Cause well it is working on other sites.

Anyone have any ideas?

Tnx

Sorry, the forum decided to stop notifying me of updates th this thread. Again.

Zutphen: It's probably another Javascript interfering with the jquery script. Try disabling other scripts on the page to check this.

David: Did you mean two rotators on one page? That should work. What happens when you try this?

florian: I can't tell without more information. Can you give me a link to the page?

Jim

hi,

i installed all the html but I have no banner which display on my index.
My link
when i installed your code in index they are no banner.

That page is a mess. You are missing both the stylesheet and the Javascript links for the banner rotator. In addition, you have duplicate Javascript functions and Javascript in the body that should be in the head. You need to clean that up if you expect it to work.

hi,

I have just redone the complete installation on the site and my banners do not still display.
What is the problem?

Thank you

florian

[kymation]

There is no banner rotator anywhere on that page. You need to include the catalog/includes/modules/banner_rotator.php where you want it to appear on the page. See lines 308-312 of the catalog/index.php in the distribution for an example of how to do this.

Hi,
i installed all the file.
I installed it in my index.php:
[code]<?php
  } else { // default page
?>
    <td valign="top" height="100%"><table border="0"   cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
      <tr>
        <td><table border="0"  width="100%"  cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
          <tr>
            <td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>
           <!-- <td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'table_background_default.gif', HEADING_TITLE, HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>-->
          </tr>
        </table></td>
      </tr>
      
      <tr>
        <td><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
          
          <tr>
            <td class="main"><?php echo TEXT_MAIN; ?></td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>
          </tr>
<?php // Start Banner Rotator; ?>
      <tr>
        <td><?php include( DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_BANNER_ROTATOR ); ?></td>
      </tr>
<?php // End Banner Rotator; ?>[/code]

catalog/includes/modules/banner_rotator.php  is installed to.

I don't understand but when i edit codesource of my index.php my banner not appears.

Then there's something interfering with the install. Do you have a template installed? If not, is there some other Addon that bypasses the normal front page?

Regards
Jim

[jolilola]

hi,

yes i have installed newsdesk, featured sets, header taggs.

kind regards
florian

[kymation]

None of those should interfere with the normal front page. I see no reason why this should not work.

Dear JIM!

Nice contrib! Good work... but...
PLEASE! help me! I thing i'll go crazy...

The banners working good, however it always showing up at wrong place... You can check this out: http://www.topnaramky.sk/catalog
I think I must put this code at the right place in index.php, and actually I am trying to find out where it could be, but it doesn't work... I am going insane...
Here is the code what I'm talking about...
<?php // Start Banner Rotator; ?>
      <tr>
        <td><?php include( DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_BANNER_ROTATOR ); ?></td>
      </tr>
<?php // End Banner Rotator; ?>

So if I want to put the banners somewhere at the top of my page, where and which file I have to modify? (sts_template.html? header.php? index.php?) I've tried everything to find out why no showing up elsewhere...
Thanks for your support!
