selectable light box with email functionality
PermalinkI've a client who wishes to build custom image galleries for specific customers. She would like the product images to display in a grid format with the ability for her clients to checkbox images and then allow her client to submit the list to her via email by clicking on a submit button,
Any suggestions of an add-on for this? I've thought about a shopping cart but think that might have too many non-editable components (price, ...)
Thanks.

Thank you.

You could start with the core form block, add the table-less layout addon and use that as the basis for a custom block template where checkboxes have images and some script to popup a larger overlay.
Or you could start with a gallery, add checkboxes to each thumbnail in the gallery, and wrap all of that in a form.
Or you could take one of the advanced form addons and create a new variation of a checkbox question type to be a checkbox with thumbnail and overlay popup.
1. Have a checkbox with an associated image
2. Link the associated image to a larger image (lightbox)
I've looked at eCommerce - examplehttps://alltonespeakers.com/index.php/products/1025/... but that is kind of overkill for what I want.
Open for thoughts.
Thanks.

I've done a similar thing here minus the form http://robynross.com.au/gallery/portraits/...
In your instance you would just need add a checkbox array in the block controller, and wrap it all in a form which POSTs to a mailing controller.
Edit: Designer Content Pro for multiple products on a single page, regular Designer Content for one product on a page.
So, any sample code or code snippets around wrapping this in a form with checkboxes you could provide would be very helpful - and very much appreciated. I'm "OK" with PHP. Good with HTML and building forms. How to combine the three with an add-on like this is a minor challenge for me. Plus (as is usually the case) my turn around needs to be quick.
Thanks for any additional help!

Form Input Arrays:http://davidwalsh.name/checkbox-form-input-arrays...
e.g.
<label> <input type="checkbox" name="product_checked[]" value="NAME_OF_PRODUCT"> Send me info on this product </label>
Sending an email with c5 email helpers:http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/developers/helpers/mail...
Of course if all else fails, just make a simple contact form and customers can specify on their own which products they would like more info on...
