Can anybody help me with this little problem i've got. I have a product catalogue in a mysql database which can be queried and return the products a customer is looking for.

 

I want to have a hidden layer which appears when the user hovers over the product description which brings up the price, stock and order button.

 

I have no problem getting the hidden layer to pop up, but i can't seem to get the product information to appear in the box. I am using PHP/MySql to query the database, and obviously the layer is a javascript (onMouseOver) function.

 

Any help / advice would be greatly appreciated

Are you able to provide some code snippets?

Ok.....very basic Javascript for the hidden layer

 

<script language ="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

<!--

function showLayer() {

document.getElementById("info").style.visibility="visible";

}

function hideLayer() {

document.getElementById("info").style.visibility="hidden";

}

//-->

 

Basic PHP to select the products from the database (excuse my basic PHP)....

 

$q3 = "select * from products where pcode = '$row2[pcode]'";

$r3 = mysqli_query($cxn,$q3) or die ('Error Q3 customer log');

while($row3 = mysqli_fetch_assoc($r3))

{

include("gp.inc");

echo "<table width='70%' style='float: left;'>

<tr>

<td width='40%' onMouseOver='showLayer('info');">$row3[description]</td>

 

 

The <td> with the description listed is where i want the layer to appear above with product info.......
