Hi Everyone

I'm new to this code writing of HTML and I'm designing a form and I'm almost there but this problem has arise and I've done seaches, read and not luck..So I turned to the experts of this board.

My Question is:

I have an add button at the end of each row of my 4 column (31 rows). I can link my add button no problme but I want to add whats in the other three columns, ( this will also go for the other 31 rows as well)

I'm not sure if this makes since but I'm trying to design a shopping cart for my web site. You click the add button and will put the part #, the description, price of the product. I haven't figure out how to add the sales tax to the amount and then add it up or click on a button to continue on shopping.

I'd be very thankful of any assistance for this problem of mine (I'm on the verge of just finding a wall and start the head banging....hahhahahahah) Been working on this now for months...and I'm stumped, tried the seaches on this board,HTML goodies site, Google seach, reading books here. No luck... I send thank you's ahead of any help from this absolutely postively marvolous and genius of this board

This is what I have of the code for the shopping cart listed below: ( didn't include all 31 rows)

I wasn't quite able to decipher what you meant in the second paragraph of "My Question is:", so I've uploaded an updated example of something that I made earlier today for someone else. Let me know if this is close to what you want.

Hi Lavalamp

Thank you for the calculate code that was great and I'll be using it if you don't mind.

The code itself is for a shopping cart. I can link the the add button to the shoplist.htm but not have the infomation from the product come on to the shopping cart page . Meaning the Part #, Qty amount, description, and price.

Feel free to use the code, I don't mind, javascript is for everyone.
If you want to pass values to another page then you can use this script that Dave Clark gave me when I had a similar problem a while ago.

It's a little over complicated, so if you get stuck just let me know and I'll help you modify it to suit your needs.

Hi Everyone

I have a table that has 5 columns and 31 rows.

My Column headings are as follows

column 1 = Qty (text box to enter amount)
column 2 = Part # ( # we give our product)
column 3 = Description ( is the product)
column 4 = Price ( amount of product)
column 5 = add gif ( hyperlinked to a shopping list)

Now I have the ADD.gif as a hyperlink to my shopping cart
but no information follows off the row or rows.

I've never built a shopping cart before or worked with HTML
I'm learning but not quick enough to not ask questions...hhahaha

My question is how do I get the information to go from my part order page to a shopping cart?

If you need to see what I have so far and could help out in the code writing department that would be fablous....

I found a virtual cart in HTML goodies site but I haven't figured out how it all goes together :confused: to put into my web site.

Please any help would be very much appreciated...

When I needed to transfer data from one page to another, I asked and Dave_Clark provided me with this (see attachment), I'm sure if he were here now he'd provide you with the same thing.

Sorry it took so long but this is my first shopping cart, (javascript is probably not the most secure way of making one by the way), and it is quite a complicated script. If you're not sure how to do something, just ask and I'll try to explain.

lava lamp, how would java script be more secure then a server side language... you say its probably the most secure way, I want to here why you think so.

be sure to read each and every word, analyzing each contextual meaning of the word, before formulating a response and drawing conclusions...

(i dunno, funniest thing i could say for this:rolleyes: )
