Magento : Allow the customer to add a comment when adding a product to cart - magento

I'm working on a Magento shop and I want to give the customers the possibility to add a comment when they put a product in cart.
The comment can contain specifications about the ordrered product. It must be visible in the checkout, in the confirmation email and in the admin sales interface.
Is there a way to do that with the standard Magento configuration? Or does a module exist?
Thanks in advance for your help.


Have a look at this extension, See the screenshots.

This may helpful for you, I have used this in a project, it works well.
But as you saying customer should add comment while adding product, you need to customize this extenion a bit.
Cheers :-)

Here is a good but old tutorial how to add custom fields in registration page
http://www.fontis.com.au/blog/magento/custom-customer-signup-attributes
It was done for Magento 1.3 so you need to read comments below the article to make it works on Magento 1.7 or check out this answer on SO Can no longer add registration fields in Magento 1.4.2.0
Also there are few extensions on Magento connect for that purpose.

Thanks for all your input. I came across this extension and it worked REALLY GREAT for me!

How to call product url in email generated by Magento

I have an email that is being generated from within magento that shows what a customer has bought. (Based on New Order Template).
Is it possible to make the item listed a link so it can be clicked and directly go to the item on my website. It sounds so simple, but can't find any info how to do this within magento.
Hope someone can help.

In design, you have an email folder. Just override email/order/items/order/default.phtml and email/order/items.phtml if you want a new column. Good luck ! :) If you want more details, ask me and I`ll help you .

what is the observer name of savepayment in magento

i want the name of savepayment observer can any body please answer me i have searched on the
google but not lucky yet.. please reply.
the savepayment means the button we click before the place order i mean to say when
we choose the payment method in onepage checkout.
Thanks,
Jitendra.

Afaik, there simply is no such observer event* in Magento. That's why you cannot find it.
But you can override
Mage_Checkout_OnepageController::savePaymentAction()
to get in control of saving payment methods.
*At least not in Magento CE 1.3 - 1.5. Don't know if this is also true for Magento PE/EE

perhaps controller_action_postdispatch_checkout_onepage_savePayment might help you ?
