display cart count in header.tpl

[PrabuSS]

Hi

 

Unfortunately i cant hook the block cart module on my top header. So I decided to add some code on my header.tpl file to display number of cart items. Please help any one for how to write the code with cart count variable globally.

 

Format will be like "cart(2) "

 

Version : 1.6.1.7

Hello,

 

Try this code:

<div class="shopping_cart">
 <a href="{$link->getPageLink($order_process, true)|escape:'html':'UTF-8'}" title="{l s='View my shopping cart'}" rel="nofollow">
  <b>{l s='Cart' mod='blockcart'}</b>
  <span class="ajax_cart_quantity{if $cart_qties == 0} unvisible{/if}">({$cart_qties})</span>
  <span class="ajax_cart_no_product{if $cart_qties > 0} unvisible{/if}">{l s='(empty)'}</span>
 </a>
</div>
