      <title><![CDATA[Magento - How to add a simple rollover to your product grid images]]></title>
      <link>http://www.eazyclick.com/how-to-make-stuff-work/magento-simple-rollover-catalog-image/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Adding a simple rollover, pop-up image (using hoverbox) to your Magento catalog product grid is very simple:</p>
<p>First find style.css (located at: skin/frontend/default/<strong><span style="color: #993300;">yourtemplatename</span></strong>/css/style.css) (make sure you make a backup of the file) add the following styles:</p>
<p>/* hoverbox product grid pop-up */<br />.hoverbox {cursor: default; list-style: none;}<br /> .hoverbox a {cursor: default;}<br /> .hoverbox a .preview {display: none;}<br /> .hoverbox a:hover .preview {display: block; position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; z-index: 1; }<br /> .hoverbox img {color: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: top; width: 155px; height: 155px; }<br /> .hoverbox li { color: inherit; display: inline; float: left; margin: 3px; padding: 5px; position: relative; }<br /> .hoverbox .preview { border-color: #000; vertical-align: top; width: auto; height: 280px; }<br /> <br /></p>
<p>Second, locate the file name list.phtml (located at: app/design/frontend/<strong><span style="color: #993300;">yourtemplatename</span></strong>/template/catlog/product/list.phtml) (make sure you make a backup first ) and make the following changes:</p>
<p>find: <span style="color: #993300;">&lt;ul class="products-grid"&gt;</span>&nbsp; ... somewhere around line 97</p>
<p>modify it to the following:&nbsp; <span style="color: #993300;">&lt;ul class="products-grid hoverbox"&gt;</span></p>
<p>Next find the following syntax - or similar (around line 100):</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300;">&lt;p class="product-image"&gt;</span><br /><span style="color: #993300;"> &lt;a href="&lt;?php echo $_product-&gt;getProductUrl() ?&gt;"  title="&lt;?php echo  $this-&gt;stripTags($this-&gt;getImageLabel($_product, 'small_image'),  null, true) ?&gt;" class="product-image"&gt;</span><br /><span style="color: #993300;"> &lt;img src="&lt;?php echo  $this-&gt;helper('catalog/image')-&gt;init($_product,  'small_image')-&gt;resize(150); ?&gt;" width="150" height="150"  alt="&lt;?php echo  $this-&gt;stripTags($this-&gt;getImageLabel($_product, 'small_image'),  null, true) ?&gt;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</span><br /><span style="color: #993300;"> &lt;/p&gt;</span></p>
<p>Change it to the following:</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300;">&lt;p class="product-image"&gt;</span><br /><span style="color: #993300;">&lt;a href="&lt;?php echo $_product-&gt;getProductUrl() ?&gt;" title="&lt;?php echo $this-&gt;stripTags($this-&gt;getImageLabel($_product, 'small_image'), null, true) ?&gt;" class="product-image"&gt;</span><br /><span style="color: #993300;">&lt;img src="&lt;?php echo $this-&gt;helper('catalog/image')-&gt;init($_product, 'small_image')-&gt;resize(155); ?&gt;" width="155" height="155" alt="&lt;?php echo $this-&gt;stripTags($this-&gt;getImageLabel($_product, 'small_image'), null, true) ?&gt;" /&gt;&lt;img src="&lt;?php echo $this-&gt;helper('catalog/image')-&gt;init($_product, 'small_image')-&gt;resize(280); ?&gt;" width="280" height="280" alt="&lt;?php echo $this-&gt;stripTags($this-&gt;getImageLabel($_product, 'small_image'), null, true) ?&gt;" class="preview"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</span><br /><span style="color: #993300;">&lt;/p&gt;</span></p>
<p>Reload both the files back onto your webserver in the correct directories (make sure you rename the original file names to style-orig.css and list-orig.phtml first - for backup). You  may also want to make changes to new.phtml (located in the same  directory) if you are using the "new products" function on the home page  of your cart.</p>
<p>Please note that you can change the sizes of the pop-up images in the style.css file and should also make corresponding changes to list.phtml. Feel free to experiment with sizes until you get the desired effect.</p>

      <title><![CDATA[Adding actions to Photoshop Elements 10]]></title>
      <link>http://www.eazyclick.com/how-to-make-stuff-work/photoshop-elements-actions/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Question:</strong> Can you add Actions to Adobe Photoshop Elements 10? <strong>Answer:</strong> Yes you can, but not all Actions are compatible and some will not work.</p>
<p><strong>How to add actions to Photoshop Elements 10</strong></p>
<p>To add actions to the action player, if you&rsquo;re using <strong>Windows 7 or Vista</strong>, just save ithe action script into:</p>
<p><em>C:\ ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Locale\en_US\Workflow Panels\Actions <br /></em>(the &ldquo;en_US&rdquo; part is different if you aren&rsquo;t in the United States).</p>
<p>For <strong>Windows XP</strong>, save it in:<br /><em>C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Ele- ments\10.0\Locale\en_us\Workflow Panels\Actions<br /> </em>(ditto  on the en_US info). <br />(You need to turn on hidden folder viewing for  Windows operating systems, since these are hidden files.)</p>
<p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>On  a Mac</strong>, load the action script into:<br /> HardDrive➝ Library➝Application Support➝Adobe➝Photoshop  Elements➝10.0➝Locale➝en_ US➝Workflow Panels➝Actions<br /> (as in Windows, the  &ldquo;en_US&rdquo; part is different if you aren&rsquo;t in the U.S.).</p>
<p>If you have the  <strong>Mac App Store version</strong>:<br />Go to Applications and right-click/Control-click  Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor, then choose:<br /> Show Package  Contents➝Contents➝Application Data➝Photoshop Elements➝10.0➝Locale➝en_US  (or your location)➝Workflow Panels➝Actions.<br />(You'll see a message that  the Actions folder can't be modified; click Authenticate and enter your  OS X password when asked, and then you can put the action there.)</p>
<p>However,  if the action has stops or requires the use of the layers panel, you'll  want to install it in the effects panel instead.</p>
<p>Not all Actions are compatible with PhotoShop Elements and the only way to find out is to install it and run it.</p>]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[Aheadworks Blog extension on Magento 1.5.1.0 404 error]]></title>
      <link>http://www.eazyclick.com/how-to-make-stuff-work/aheadworks-blog-extension/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Problem:</strong> I have just installed version 1.0.22. of Aheadworks Blog Extension in Magento 1.5.1.0. When I go to "Blog <span class="posthilit">Settings</span>" or any of the Aheadworks links under the "Configuration" section I get a 404 error.  The posts are  appearing in the main blog page. However when I try to  click the  individual posts I'm getting a 404 error. Any ideas?</p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> To fix just clear your browser cache (System&gt; Cache Management), then logout and log back into your magento store. You may also need to re-index your data (System&gt;Index Management).</p>]]></description>
