I need to add a coupon code and apply a discount for against only one item in cart

I need to add a coupon code and apply a discount for against only one item in cart

I need to be able to add a coupon code to my cart and have a discount applied only to only particular item's value in the cart....so if the customer adds two $10 widgets to the cart and enters a correct coupon code which is worth 50%, the value displayed and charged for that line item would be $10, one widget would be $5. I don't want to give a discount for the entire contents of the cart, only that one item number. I took a listen to the tutorial and looked at the recipe, but don't see how to implement for one item. Attached is what I have so far.

You are very close with the discount that you are crafting, you just need to specify price rather than total price for the calculation portion. This way it will take the price of the item, and give a discount based on this value. For 50% off you would multiply by .5.

If you had it set this way and had two $10 widgets in the cart and the correct coupon code was entered you would give a discount of $10 * .5 which would be $5, so the total would be $15 after the discount.

For whatever reason, when I create the session variable named "PromoCode", I'm following the recipe and it won't let me type in a session name and just grabs the last one listed. When I try to execute the promo code logic, nothing happens.

Here is the code...

Cart.php session code...
<?php
if (!session_id()) session_start();
if((((isset($_FILES["Coupon"]))?$_FILES["Coupon"][""]:"") != "")) {
$_SESSION["Session_PromoCode"] = "".((isset($_FILES["Coupon"]))?$_FILES["Coupon"][""]:"") ."";
}
?>
..................................................................................................................
Coupon Code code in cart.php...
<form id="form1CouponCode" name="form1CouponCode" method="post" action="">
<label><span class="style10">Coupon Code</span>
<input name="Coupon Code" type="text" id="Coupon Code" size="8" maxlength="8" />
</label>
<label>
<div align="right">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Submit" />
.............................................................................................................
Add to cart button code on the product page...
<input type="hidden" name="IsACart_3_ID_Add" value="100106" >
<span class="style1"> Style:</span>
<select name="IsACart_3_Style_Add">
<option value="Feathers" selected>Feathers</option>
<option value="Beads">Beads</option>
<option value="Gems">Gems</option>
</select>
</p>
<p align="left">
<input type="text" name="IsACart_3_Quantity_Add" value="1" size="4" >
<input type="image" src="../WA_eCart/Images/Poppy/Btn4_EN_addtocart.gif" border="0" value="Add to Cart" name="IsACart_3_ATC" />
</p>
</form>

..........................................................................................................
And in isACart_PHP.php...
//Discounts
$this->Discounts[] = new WA_eCart_Rule(urldecode("PromoCode"), true, "WAEC_IsACart_PromoCode");

When you are saying that you cannot enter the name of the session variable are you referring to the set session variable interface or the eCart interface for the discount?

It looks like in your code you are setting the session variable promocode. It seems that you are binding this variable to an incorrect value. This variable should be bound to your coupon code text field. Also, you should not have a space in the name of your coupon code text field.

In the eCart discount it looks as though you are not making reference to the promo code session variable.
