This is possible with some HTML and PHP coding.

You need to edit storefront controller product/product in public function main()
https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/blob/master/public_html/storefront/controller/pages/product/product.php

You need to add selectbox type of HTML element instead input for

Code: [Select]

$this->data['form']['minimum'] = $form->getFieldHtml(
array(
'type'  => 'input',
'name'  => 'quantity',
'value' => $qnt,
'style' => 'short',
'attr'  => ' size="3" '));

it is a bit unclear exactly what you want to accomplish.   But if it is a way to give customers a different pricing depending in the quantity they buy,  then promotions is the tab on the product you need to use.

Here's the docs about it

I mean the quantity box i wont allow customer to fill in, but ask them to select the quantity because i'm selling bulk quantity 100pcs, 200pcs..just wont allow to fill for eg; 150pcs, 250 or 350.. etc

look at this item on the demo cart -  it is an example of giving number of items and the pricing point.   It is a result of apply the discount as described in the previous link I gave you for the document ion on how to do this.

If these are pre-packaged sizes then this is probably a better way -  using options for the sizes - then they select the package size they want

Yes i already use this and i dont have any problem on that, but what i mean is the quantity box.

the scenario is, let say customer want to buy 120pcs, but i not selling this quantity. i only sell in bulk quantity 100pcs@200@300...so i just want the customer choose the quantity is set by us.

Take a look at my screenshots for using Options  with package sizes set up in the Global Attributes and then added to the test part product.

If you only allow them to select a pre-package size option  then they can not input 120 pcs when you sell only in multiples of 100.

PS  if the way the option pricing difference is displayed is not to your liking  look at this extension that presents it differently
