Hello,
after I have done a search on this issue I consider the solutions given not to be suitable for vm3.
Example this message:
http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=108148.msg361729#msg361729 (http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=108148.msg361729#msg361729)
The code given has to have been rewritten and is not to find in the given locations.
But that can't be such hard work to do for a php professional virtuemart expert.
So where to change location for "continue shopping" link in the modal pop up window.
In my case customers just need to stay on the current page.
Regarding to many people asking this it should be a problem many are interested in its solution.

I use this method where staying on the same page is requested.
Edit and override components/com_virtuemart/views/cart/tmpl/padded.php
Find:
echo '<a class="continue_link" href="' . $this->continue_link . '" >' . vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CONTINUE_SHOPPING') . '</a>';
Replace with:
$continue_link = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$this->continue_link = $continue_link;
echo '<a class="continue_link" href="' . $this->continue_link . '" >' . vmText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CONTINUE_SHOPPING') . '</a>';
[code]
You can remove the link and add modal close javascript if you prefer to not override original PHP
For eg:
jQuery('.continue_link').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
jQuery.fancybox.close();
});
Thank you both for the good solutions.
I will try them.
I would suggest for further vm versions to invent a configuration menu to edit all those important routings in the backend.

@jenkinhill:
How to prevent that edited padded.php from being replaced by a future vm update?

@studio 42
Where to put your code instead of padded.php?

As I said "Edit and override components/com_virtuemart/views/cart/tmpl/padded.php" The override file should be placed in templates/[your-Joomla-template]/html/com_virtuemart/cart/ then it does not get overwritten.

Thank you - didn't quite catch that "override"...but now it's clear.

Sorry to reopen an old thread, but I did as you advised to change the "Continue Shopping" link to a simple modal close. However, now the ajax cart does not auto update unless I refresh the page... Any advice on what I could add to trigger the ajax cart refresh upon closing the modal window?
Here is the code I used:
echo '<a class="continue" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="jQuery.fancybox.close();" >' . JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_CONTINUE_SHOPPING') . '</a> ';
