Detangling the virtual/variant javascript

[Tim Ruppert]

I have a client who instead of using the stock javascript for managing
the variant products, under a virtual product - he wants to just
generate radio buttons.  I have no idea why this is better for him, but
if anyone has the exact attributes broken out in this way - I would
greatly appreciate the pointer.

Cheers,
Tim

Do you mean radio buttons instead of a drop-down?

It shouldn't be too hard to change the HTML generated to do that from  
the template side, but there would be a trick because in JavaScript  
and with DHTML it is a bit trickier to dynamically add or remove  
radio buttons than it is to change options in a drop-down.

Yes, this assumes that you'd only really have one type of variant -
which does not really make a system does it?

I'll think about this - but is there a complete list of fields that are
being set by the javascript - that need to be send along to additem in
this case?

Cheers,
