Ever wanted to give out a script that should be restricted to run on one PC? Well, of course you can buy the expensive ioncube pro version which has this feature build in, but the cheaper one ( 199 $ ) also does the job, if you write your own function - which is actually mentioned for windows based systems only.
XT:Commerce is getting old, as the actual release still utilizes popups to display original images. So here’s a simple way to include the lightbox ( well, in this case, slimbox, as we are going to use the famous mootools framework )…
Step 1:
Copy your mootools.js to the main folder of your shop. Copy slimbox.js to the same location, and copy slimbox.css as well as all attached images to the templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_/ main folder.
Step 2:
Go to templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_/javascript/general.js.php and open this file.
Step 3:
Add this line of code to the file
<script language='javascript' type='text/javascript' src='mootools.js'></script>
Step 4:
Go to templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_/modules/product_info/product_info.html and open it
Find this:
{if $PRODUCTS_IMAGE!=''}
<a href="{$REAL_IMAGE}" title="{$PRODUCTS_NAME}"><img src="{$PRODUCTS_IMAGE}" alt="{$PRODUCTS_NAME}" class="prod_image" /></a>
{/if}
Change it to this:
<a href="{$REAL_IMAGE}" rel="lightbox" title="{$PRODUCTS_NAME}"><img src="{$PRODUCTS_IMAGE}" alt="{$PRODUCTS_NAME}" class="prod_image" /></a>
Now go to your templates/YOUR_TEMPLATES_/ folder and locate the main CSS file. Open it and include the slimbox.css file via import:
import url(slimbox.css);
Now the real important part
As you surely wish to show biiiiig images in the lightbox instead of the resized versions that XT:Commerce creates, do the following:
Open in your main shop directory the file /includes/modules/product_info.php. Locate this piece of code, which should be around line 92:
$info_smarty->assign('PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION', stripslashes($product->data['products_description']));
$image = ”;
Add the following below this line:
$image2 = DIR_WS_ORIGINAL_IMAGES.$product->data['products_image'];
$info_smarty->assign(’REAL_IMAGE’,$image2);
That’s it - your shop now displays the big product info pictures via lightbox / slimbox!
The standard installation of XT:Commerce 3.04 SP2.1 will show only the article number in the navtrail bar. This is quite annoying and also not very SEO optimized. Therefore here’s a small hack that will display the name of the article in the navtrail instead of the - mostly irritating and ugly article number:
A new year a new layout - we thought, the time for the mega whitespace page has come to make room for a stylish and easy to navigate page. Furthermore big headings and color schemes are integrated for easily following content.

mooDBToolTip is an AJAX & PHP driven solution to populate a toolTip for a specific link or tag in your website automatically.
Assume you want to explain your users certain abbreviations - normally you’d do this with an html tag, which contains the explanation. This can get very time consuming, if you run a blog, a board or any DB driven website.
Here mooDBToolTip enters the game. It simply gets the tag in question, queries it to a database, and if an explanation to this word is found, it creates and injects a tooltip into the page containing the found interpretation. But stop! That’s far from being all that this tool is capable of.
If you wish to display your flickr stats in your blog, on your page etc, you’ll need this nifty little widget. It’s capable of retrieving your posted images, information about you on flickr, your most used tags and the user groups you are attending.
There are two versions available - one for HTML documents and one for PHP. Although there are only slight differences, it’s pretty useful if your sites are not dynamic pages.
Have a look at it:

This piece of code reads all color styles from a website - no matter if inline CSS, linked CSS files or imported CSS files. It also finds references to CSS files that are inside i.e. a master CSS file and outputs the colors found as a color cloud.
