Magento Upsell (we also recommend) not showing solved
Sep 3rd
After trying almost everything from checking the javascripts codes, php codes, to trial and error delete and pasting back xml elements in catalog.xml to what ever possible solution I can think of, showing a lost We also Recommend tab is just a click of a button, I never expect to reindex the whole database after your first installation and I didn’t receive any warning that I should re index my whole system. I lost 5 hours just to learn a mistake, if something weird is happening to your magento data, please try to re index the system first before you touch any codes…

Jquery Developers Singapore or simply Jquery Singapore
Sep 2nd
Having a stable ecommerce system like magento in my arsenal which we are selling like hot cakes to SME companies here in singapore, I am now equipping and wants to go deeper to user interface design not only in Ecommerce website but for all types of applications residing in browsers. I am so sleepy right now so maybe I have to sleep, zend framework and code igniter? … well these looks will only be called if there is a need for very customize web app, magento and wordpress is feeding me right now and also joomla, I never knew joomla could generate so much food… well for asp.net mvc… I still love its potentials… but right now I am going towards opensource technologies so all the experience and disciplines I have in the .net world are still very useful especially the MVC pattern… For server side frameworks.. spring mvc, zend framework and code igniter… for front end? if I code the project from scrath then I will definitely choose jquery, but for out of the box web apps… I can take prototype and primitive javascript… scriptalicious? mmm I haven’t digested it yet… so got to sleep…. hoping for a jquery developer singapore show down….

Jquery Ajax Codeigniter
Sep 1st
In your View
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
jQuery(‘#x’).click(function(){
jQuery("#content").empty().html(‘<img src="http://juliusbacosachronicles.com/wp-content/themes/mystique/images/workstation.jpg" />’);
var num = 8;
jQuery(‘#content’).load("index.php/welcome/jajax/"+num,function(str){});
});
});
// Code that uses other library’s $ can follow here.
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
jQuery(‘#x’).click(function(){
jQuery("#content").empty().html(‘<img src="http://juliusbacosachronicles.com/wp-content/themes/mystique/images/workstation.jpg" />’);
var num = 8;
jQuery(‘#content’).load("index.php/welcome/jajax/"+num,function(str){});
});
});
// Code that uses other library’s $ can follow here.
</script>
then the div to hold the content
In your Controller
function Welcome()
{
parent::Controller();
$this->load->helper(‘url’);
}
function index()
{
$this->load->view(‘welcome_message’);
}
function jajax($num)
{
$results[‘xxx’] = $num*111;
$this->load->view(‘Ajax_record’,$results);
//get the record from the database
}
{
parent::Controller();
$this->load->helper(‘url’);
}
function index()
{
$this->load->view(‘welcome_message’);
}
function jajax($num)
{
$results[‘xxx’] = $num*111;
$this->load->view(‘Ajax_record’,$results);
//get the record from the database
}
then for the view Ajax_record
<?php print $xxx; ?>
Retrieving data from Model and accessing the database is still the same.

Changing Style of Parent Element of an HTML form input with Javascript
Aug 29th
The html input is a checkbox, I want to let the li be in highlight mode if the checkbox is checked.
<li>
<input type="checkbox" name="dishs[]" value="<?php echo $listdish[‘dish_name’]; ?>" onclick="checktolimit(this);"> <?php echo $listdish[‘dish_name’]; ?>
</li>
<input type="checkbox" name="dishs[]" value="<?php echo $listdish[‘dish_name’]; ?>" onclick="checktolimit(this);"> <?php echo $listdish[‘dish_name’]; ?>
</li>
The javascript for this is.
function checktolimit(obj){
if(obj.checked){
obj.parentNode.className=’selectactive’;
}else{
obj.parentNode.className=’selectnotactive’;
}
}
if(obj.checked){
obj.parentNode.className=’selectactive’;
}else{
obj.parentNode.className=’selectnotactive’;
}
}
where selectnotactive and selectactive are class names in your style.css or whatever you call it.
