Tabular product layout , Joomla 3

Hi

I'm looking for clarification as how how the tabular product layout should work in a standard joomla 3 /hikashop install.

I'm currently building a custom joomla/hikashop template for a client, the product layout is set to tabular. All the elements of the tabs appear but with no styling applied or jquerry function. Jquerry is loading with the page, as far as i can see there are no conflicts with other elements on the page.

Can anyone eitehr point me towards what i've missed or confirm that this is standard and that there is no inherent css within hikashop for the tabular layout.

the url is here

Cheers

Am now confused,

have just switch to the Beez template to find that the tabs work. In hte beez template Div id hikashop_tabs has several classes applied to it, how ever these classes are present when i switch back to the work in progress, this in itself is easy enough to sort out, however where do these classes come from, how come they are present in the beez template but aren't actually in the show_tabular.php file?

Hi,

Did you edited some hikashop views files of your front-end template related to the product view ? If yes, can you check it and revert your changes through "hikashop->Display->Views" ?

I've not edied the views file at present. Have also just set up a standard install of joomla3/hikashop locally. When comparing the show_tabular.php files, they are identical. Neither show the classes required for tabs to work correctly.

Not to worry, at least I can see what is required to get this working with standard css, though it would be nice to know why this works 'out of the box' with beez3 and not with our custom template.

Cheers

Ok, the problem is probably coming from your template but I'm glad to know that you can get it to work .

Can you shed any light on how the neccessary classes that are added when using the beez3 template are added to the html? They're not part of show_tabular.php and they're not part of the beez3 template. Knowing how they are added would help build a better template and make future Hikashop templates a little simpler.

Cheers

We're using the tabs functionality of jQuery for that layout:
jqueryui.com/tabs/

We don't add any class to the html.
The classes that you see in the HTML are added by the tabs function of jQuery ui.

If you don't see them with your custom template, it means that Query didn't find the div with the id "hikashop_tabs" or one of the divs of each panel of the tabular display (description specification comment new_comment).

Cheers

We managed to work that out yesterday, not too sure what was causing our problem. Am guessing it was a spelling mistake or a missing character in our code, after much checking and re checking we got it working.

Have to say I'm very impressed with Hikashop, love the flexibility and ease at which layouts can be edited.
