Email a Friend: Form error

[FlyAgain +]

Hello,
For some reason when I click on "email a friend" the form is skewed to the right and there is no submit button. Site address is : FlyAgainParts.com
same issue logged in or not.

I checked ADMIN, in the user groups and I do have it set to YES, each group can "email a friend"

Not sure what would be causing this?

THANK YOU,
Chris

the link to e-mail a friend employs javascript to pop open a new window and fill it with the form. Looks like there is no window size specified, you could try adding that so the new popup window is large enough to hold the form.

Hi Larry,
Thanks for the Quick Response.
Makes sense.
Not sure exactly how to do that? I am really new to all of this.
Easy instructions - or should I ask 68c for tech help..

Thanks
Chris

oops, I stand corrected a size is specified already its just too small for the form. open your viewlisting template and look for the following ...


MM_openBrWindow('http://www.flyagainparts.com/friendmail.php?vehicle=13','contact','width=350,he ight=400')


edit the height an width numbers iuntil th windows opens at a size suitable for the form inside it.

I think I can do that. THANK YOU for your time to assist with a solution.
Have a great day!

There is actually an issue on the friendmail.tpl file. The issue is this line near the top.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/{$smarty.const.MAIN_TEMPLATE}/css/style.css" type="text/css" />

There is no css in the templatecodes template to completely deal with this form as we use the default template file. However it is not using the default template css so it is screwing up. Two small changes to the template file are needed. We shall supply this file in future but here is the fix. If you want the new file which will be correctly styled and structured please email me.

Make a copy of friendmail.tpl from the default template contact folder and put it in the contact folder of your templatecodes template folder. Then find the line above and change it to this

<link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/default/css/style.css" type="text/css" />

Now find the line 68 which says this

<th colspan="2">{$smarty.const.LANG_EMAIL_FRIEND}</th>

Change it to

<td colspan="2"><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_EMAIL_FRIE ND}</strong></td>


all should be well afterwards.

I will move this thread into the Templatecodes section as it is a specific integration issue.

Thank you for the information.
I will TRY to make these changes. I am using Filezilla and still learning.
I have not needed to add any files yet. I am not exactly sure how to copy/paste.
Your instructions seem clear. I will give it a try.
THANKS
Chris

Write to me and I will send you a new file to upload tomorrow which will be styled to the template.

A new friendmail template file is now available. Contact me if you want it. The fixed file is better than what I proposed above.

Thanks for your time on this.
I went ahead before seeing your new information and made the changes you outlined.
The form is working just fine now.

THANKYOU
Chris
