Loading Attributes using Jquery

[khalilrumi]

In order to make may Magento template faster, i am trying to use jquery to load configurable products options. How can i fetch these attributes by using jquery. I want to show default options initially and then customers can change options as per their needs.

We are going to need a lot more information about exactly what it is you are doing.

Allright, the thing is that, with products like tables, chair and other decoration items, customers can select different colors before they buy. The first option is that i would have to create configurable options for each product and load them when the template loads. It can make loading slow.

 

Few options can be shown and then users can select other options if they like. thanks

And you are stuck where? Can we see your code and as description of the problem?

Resolved, i was using the following code,

 

<?php foreach($_attributes as $_attribute): ?>
<dt><label class="required"><em>*</em><?php echo $_attribute->getLabel() ?></label></dt>
<dd<?php if ($_attribute->decoratedIsLast){?> class="last"<?php }?>>
<div class="input-box">
<select name="super_attribute[<?php echo $_attribute->getAttributeId() ?>]" id="attribute<?php echo $_attribute->getAttributeId() ?>" class="required-entry super-attribute-select">
<option><?php echo $this->__('Choose an Option...') ?></option>
</select>
</div>
</dd>
<?php endforeach; ?>

 

 

Now i will fetch these options from spConfig.config.attributes, i will use following code:

 

<script type="text/javascript">

var spConfig = new Product.Config(<?php echo $this->getJsonConfig() ?>);
for(var i=spConfig.settings.length-1;i>=0;i--) {
spConfig.settings[i].selectedIndex = 1;
}
spConfig.reloadPrice();
</script>

 

 

Thanks,
