Product listing- column

[mattifinn]

I am looking for an old contribution made by *one of the developers* that changed product listing to columns - any help?

 

I know about Ian C. Wilson's contrib.... not the one I am looking for

[mattifinn]

well..... after searching all day...... because the BB search engine cannot manage to find 'product listing', I found reference to the old hack here:

 

http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/viewtopic.php...=productlisting

 

It was done by David Garcia Watkins, but unfortunately is unreadable in this BB.....

 

Anyone know where i can find a clean copy.... it used to be in contribs, but has disappeared......

I had the same problem (frustrating) but knew it could be done because I'd seen http://paulharris.paulharris.com/catalog/default.php. I couln't find an answer so I've started hacking something together in product_listing.php. It basically uses code from new_products.php. This hasn't been fully tested for pagination yet but the basics are here. Note that this version displays 6 columns of products but this can easily by changed by editing line 54 (if ($col > 5)) and changing td width on line 51 (in the params for the $info_box_contents_array). HTH! :D
