variation on Multiple item add to cart interface

I managed to find an ecart 3 archived file on adding multiple items to the cart with a single 'add to cart' button

i have attempted to adapt the tutorial to suit my needs, as i am attempting to simultaneously add a number of colour options to my cart for a single itemID.

using the 'ecart get from recordset' server behavior, i have managed to get this working, in so far as I can add several options of a single item to the cart in one click.

in the tutorial, the quantity field is set to '1'.

how do i go about using a quantity field for each of my options in my cart form, so that customer entered quantities are added to the cart array ?

i have added the fields to the form , but i cannot add the values from the fields to the array.

set the quantity filed name to contain the ID from the recordset:

<input name="quantity_<?php echo $row_RsName['ID']; ?>" id="quantity_<?php echo $row_RsName['ID']; ?>" type="text" value="1" />



then modify the quantity for the get contents from recordset to use the ID column to:
$cartNameCart_itemQuantity = floatval("".((isset($_POST["quantity_".$row_RsName['ID']."]))?$_POST["quantity".$row_RsName['ID']."]:"") ."");

nearly there...

thanks Jason, getting closer.

i pasted your code, got a typo error and changed it (hopefully correctly) so it worked..

$cartNameCart_itemQuantity = floatval("".((isset($_POST["quantity_".$row_RsName['ID'].""]))?$_POST["quantity".$row_RsName['ID'].""]:"") ."");

i checked the page in firebug, and the id is correctly appended to the quantity field in each case, but the cart only updates the entered value from the first quantity field

change:
$rainbowcart_itemQuantity = floatval("".((isset($_POST["quantity_".$row_rsitemcolors['FirstNumberID'].""]))?$_POST["quantity_".$row_rsitemcolors['FirstNumberID'].""]:"") ."");


to:
$rainbowcart_itemQuantity = floatval("".((isset($_POST["quantity_".$row_rsaddselected['ItemID'].""]))?$_POST["quantity_".$row_rsaddselected['ItemID'].""]:"") ."");

that doesn't work.

if i try this, nothing is added to the cart, so quantity must be zero

the itemid is constant throughout, the firstnumberID is the ID given to the checkbox and the quantity field

ok, then you will need to edit the rsaddselected recordset ti include the FirstNumberID column and change the code to:


$rainbowcart_itemQuantity = floatval("".((isset($_POST["quantity_".$row_rsaddselected['FirstNumberID'].""]))?$_POST["quantity_".$row_rsaddselected['FirstNumberID'].""]:"") ."");
