Magento-1.7 Configurable Product – Change Dropdown Option to Different Form on Product Page

configurable-productmagento-1.7

I am a newbie in Magento and i got something very tricky on product page. I have to hide the drop-down option from here and show all the attributes values in a single line like

[Size : Small Medium Large]

[Color : Red Green Pink]

but the color will only show after selecting the size like in default Magento drop-down. I am able to get all the attribute according to the product id but how can i get the color attribute according to the size attribute for a particular product, and then pass that values to the cart page after clicking on the add to cart button.

I have really stuck in this task can someone help me please..

Just so this question can have an answer.... I recommend this extension (the OP already confirmed that is using it). It can change your dropdowns to labels with the option texts, or even with the simple product images. It can do even more than that. Full description provided here

Magento – Order of Values/Labels of Configurable attribute options and custom options on cart page

I'm not 100% sure on this, I've ever actually used custom options, but tracing back from the template, I think you'd need to rewrite Mage_Catalog_Helper_Product_Configuration::getCustomOptions. I'm assuming the custom option comes from the additional_options field so at the bottom of that function you can just re-arrange the order:

$addOptions = $item->getOptionByCode('additional_options');
if ($addOptions) {
    // switch around the order of the items in the array like so
    $options = array_merge(unserialize($addOptions->getValue()), $options);
}

Magento 1.8.1.0 – Layered Navigation Not Filtering Configurable Products Correctly

No, there is not (out of the box!).

When the index is built, ALL simple products are fetched (regardless if active or not) and all searchable, filterable, ... attributes are index (one by one), so there is no option to have your intended behaviour.

More infos can be found in \Mage_CatalogSearch_Model_Resource_Fulltext::_prepareProductIndex
