But I can't figure out how to create the script for the hardcoded option... I you can juste tell me some idea ou link me some post or article that you know that can help me i will very apperciate :)

{exp:cartthrob:item_options entry_id="{entry_id}" row_id="{row_id}"}
    {options}       
    {if selected}
    {option_label}: {option_name}<br />

        {exp:channel:entries channel="products" dynamic="no"}

                <div id="{option_value}" class="color_swatch" style="background:#{color_code}; border:1px solid #ccc;"  onclick="javascript:ApplyBodyColor(187); setBorder(0,7,'body'); makerequest();"><img src="{site_url}assets/images/colorblk.png" alt="{option_value}" title="{option_name}"></div>
            {/binding}
        {/exp:channel:entries}
    {/if}    
    {/options}  
{/exp:cartthrob:item_options}

If I'm understanding correctly, you're trying to set up those color swatches to be a clickable way to set an item option.

I'm assuming that your Matrix field is named "binding". Here is some code that will hopefully help you out. It uses a simple jquery click event to set the value of a text field that will be submitted when you add the product to your cart.

<html>
<head>
{!-- using the jquery module script tag here, but you can link to any jquery library --}
{exp:jquery:script_tag}
</head>
<body>
{exp:channel:entries channel="products" dynamic="no"}
    {exp:cartthrob:add_to_cart_form entry_id="{entry_id}"}
        {title}<br />
        {binding}
           <div id="{option_value}" class="color_swatch" style="background:#{color_code}; border:1px solid #ccc; width:50px; height:25px; display:block; float:left; margin: 10px;"></div>
        {/binding}
        <div style="clear:both;"></div>

        {!-- this is the input that will add the item option called "color" to your item in your order channel --}
        {!-- you can change this to type="hidden" if you don't want it shown --}
        <input type="text" name="item_options[color]" id="selected_color" /><br />

        <input type="submit" value="Add to Cart" />
    {/exp:cartthrob:add_to_cart_form}
{/exp:channel:entries}

 <script type="text/javascript">
 jQuery(document).ready(function($){
      $(".color_swatch").click(function(){
           $("#selected_color").val($(this).attr('id'));
      });
 });
 </script>
 </body>
 </html>

  • Thx Alot for the Help! That exactly what I was looking for!!! Can I ask, one last thing? If I want the color in the cart fix ( the client won't be able to change what writhed in the color ) – Magalon Jan 31 '14 at 3:04

    If you are trying to keep the customer from changing the color once it's added in an update_cart_form, you can search for the item option using an if statement in the item_options tag. Look for the option_field cartthrob.com/docs/tags_detail/item_options/#if-option_field – Chris Newton Jan 31 '14 at 4:48
