Hi Carolynne – I should also mention that I also added more parent divs to the menu. Silly me I was trying to be more streamlined with my HTML and was trying to use the least amount of divs as possible. In the end I wrapped the menu in more divs and gave the immediate parent of the menu a z-index of 10. The top parent had the usual position:relative.
Trial and Error!

Hi, Thanks for that, I had a similar problem with a drop down menu, spent ages tweaking trying to get to to work in IE as all the rest were great. I never worked out the background color bit, in the end I put in a spry drop down. I will try this next time, thanks again.

Is there any shortcode to display an add to cart button?

Thanks for your speedy reply! Did you just use a typical page or did you edit the products page php?

Sorry for the questions, just need this exact type effect and not sure which direction to look? Fantastic work you’re really talented!

Hey Matt, thanks! It was a lot of work but the end results were worth it. When I have time I might go into more detail about how I actually accomplished this. I have to say right off the bat that this was really experimental so my actual breakdown is kind of involved. But to tell the truth all you need is the latest version of the wp-e-commerce plugin and the Haiku audio player plugin and of course you need to know how to work it with CSS and WP themes.

This is fantastic! Any way you could give a breakdown of what you did or a mini tutorial? Fantastic work!

I’ve been spending a lot of time on your site because I’m working on my first Lightspeed site. (Oy.) Imagine my pleasant surprise when I discovered that you’re using Haiku for one of your projects!

Comment on How to tip: set a minimum amount before checkout in wp e commerce, part 2 by mccormicky

Shipping is far more complicated than this hack can handle. You’d need to set or catch a minimum in a different place than the cart widget. I wrote this to stop customers from getting to the checkout before they’d added the minimum price amount to the cart. What you need is bigger than that.

Depends. Which quantity minimum are you targeting?
A minimum quantity for ALL items in the cart ( you must add at least 10 items to the cart) in which case you’d be looking at this: wpsc_cart_item_count();
A minimum quantity for individual cart items ( you must add at least 10 of this item to the cart) in which case you’d look at this: wpsc_cart_item_quantity();

I was able to find the calculate subtotal function and hack it to set a price minimum. I haven’t looked very hard but there might be a function that calculates how many items are in the cart – if that is where you want to set the minimum. If you want to set a minimum on individual items ( you must add at least 10 of this item to the cart) then I’d look toward revising your product strategy; bundle the products into sets of ten or however many you want added at a time, instead. Far easier.
