Trouble with sizePriceInc in Product Options

Since purchasing eCart 5, I have found the forum support to be invaluable ... I have spent more than a couple of hours referencing issues, always finding a solution. Thank you for addressing all concerns in such a professional manner.

My issue - I have followed your eCart tutorials carefully, but cannot realize any sizePriceInc on my cart page. My details page creates an accurate select list from the options in my database, but only the base price registers with the "Add to Cart".

I put off submitting this, hoping to solve it myself, but I am stumped.

I have zipped my details and cart pages ... would appreciate some feedback.

Thanks in advance.

ok, I see the problem, there are 2 issues causing this to not work:

1) The size select list is not part of the add to cart form.

it is outside of the add to cart form tags, so not included as part of the form post when the add to cart button is pressed.


2) in the add to cart form, the element that passes the item ID is named eCartPurpleEssentials_1_ID_Add:

php:
<input type="hidden" name="eCartPurpleEssentials_1_ID_Add" value="<?php echo $row_DetailRS1["ProductID"]; ?>" >



in the Lookup recordset, you have set the run time value of the paramItem variable to a form element named eCart1_1_ID_Add:

php:
$_POST['eCart1_1_ID_Add']



the run time value should be changed to:

php:
$_POST['eCartPurpleEssentials_1_ID_Add']

Thanks for the quick analysis, Jason. I will give it a go.

Browsing the extensive WA forum boards, seeing the number of customers you interact with (newb and experienced), it must be said that you do an amazing job! It's nice for someone with limited experience, like me, to not be made to feel that their question(s) are silly or amateurish ... we all start somewhere!!

One more thing, if you have time to consider a solution ... direct me as to how I might tie the select size menu to the displayed product price on the details page. I have the base price listed, but would like it to change if a size option is selected.

Regards

updating the price on change of the select list would require a custom ajax function to querythe database, then chage the price.

an easier way would be to add the increment to the select list, for example:

change:

php:
<option value="<?php echo $row_rsSize['ProductOptionID']?>"><?php echo $row_rsSize['OptionName']?></option>



to:

php:
<option value="<?php echo $row_rsSize['ProductOptionID']?>"><?php echo $row_rsSize['OptionName']?><?php if($row_rsSize['OptionPriceIncrement'] > 0) echo(" + ".$row_rsSize['OptionPriceIncrement']); ?></option>

Updated product price on details page would be best

On my website, product options and price increments, are listed as suggested above. The select list indicates any additional price increment applicable, and it transfers to cart accurately. However, I would like the displayed product price to be updated on my details page after the select. This would require a custom ajax function. As I am near the completion of the website, and looking to move on to marketing, etc., I have less time to complete this task myself; I would like to have this small bit of code written for me. Would purchasing a ticket allow you to help me with the code to query my database and update product price based on selected product option? Thanks, guys.
