JavaScript - (solved) Javascript Shopping Cart

Hi all,
I have just joined this forum hoping for some help on a problem i am having, i have a feeling the solution is simple but im a noob at JAVA so i have no idea how to work it out.

The site is....
http://inspirecalendar.net/html/purchase.html

The problem is the following....

When you select US (West Coast) as your location it doesn't update the price on the right properly. If you select it first it just won't display anything. if you select it after choosing another one and hitting continue then it doesn't change.

Any help would be appreciated, hope i explain the problem properly if you have any questions feel free to ask...

Thnks in advance :Smiley

Hi Guys,

I am trying to get the Fat-Free shopping cart woking with a flash file.

I have tried

[CODE]
on (rollOver) {
_parent.gotoAndPlay("s1");
}
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
_parent.gotoAndPlay("s2");
}
on (release)
{getURL("https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/fgb.php?c=cart&cl=1&ejc=2&merchant_id=your_google_merchant_id&business=website.com" target="ej_ejc" class="ec_ejc_thkbx" onClick="javascript:return EJEJC_lc(this));"}[CODE]

The compiler tells me that a ')' or ',' is expected.

Any help appreciated. I am a newbie.

Thanks

Hi All! Thanks in advance to any and all who help me.

What we are trying to do is have a form where customers can use a conditional logic based form that upon submission will redirect to checkout with an appropriate product bundle being populated in the shopping cart. I have some experience with creating forms, in fact I have made a decent form that I have modified from an online form builder... the problem is I have no idea how to auto-fill the shopping cart... period.

From what I have read in my research this should be a function of Javascript. I have a decent working knowledge of php, and html, but I am pretty clueless when it comes to Javascript, if anyone could point me in the right direction for this project I would really appreciate it.

hello

recently i finally managed to make a working shopping cart system, in that i can add as many items as i want and it will work, all using cookies.

Then i have another page, the cart which reads the cookie entry made with each demo purchase, then using a while loop lists these items, the problem i am having, is that when i add the textbox which would hold the value of the quantity, it is put out on the next line down, instead of next to the text which i find quite annoying.
Also i would like to know how i can add a button next to the textbox, for updating the quantity, also ide like to know how i could access that button, or have it do something, since it wouldnt be prewritten.

any help would be greatly apreciated.
here is a zip file containing the html files of the customizable purchase page, and the new shopping cart. be sure to refresh the page before trying to use the first page, so it establishes the counter cookie.

Right now this javascript shopping cart works to 1. charge shipping based on the item, 2. the destination country, 3. it combines shipping for a quantity over 1 of the SAME item.

Each item has 2 different possible shipping charges. I am trying to get the javascript to check the shopping cart to see what item in the cart has the highest possible shipping charge, charge that amount to that item, and charge the lowest possible shipping charge on all other items in the cart. If item A is purchased alone shipping is $5.00. If purchased with item B, which costs $10.00 to ship alone, the $10.00 is charged for item B and only $3.00 for item A. Because item B had the higher shipping charge at a quantity of one.

I have tried adding various things like me.items[current], item.shipping, me.shipping, this.shipping, shipping_Cost, and other things next to the second && in the part of the script that shows the country. I have also tried adding && if (me.whatever) and && if (item.whatever) and similar things at the beginning of the script next to if (this.country). I have found the parts of the script that pertain to cart items and to updating the shopping cart. Now I am stuck.

The javascript is in 2 parts. One part goes in the item page, which I will post first. The second part goes in an external javascript file which I will post at the bottom. In between there is the part that shows the shopping cart. It isn't part of the javascript.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="simpleCart.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--  
simpleCart.checkoutTo = PayPal;
simpleCart.email = "my Paypal email address";
simpleCart.cartHeaders = ["Name" , "Price" , "Quantity" , "remove" ];

CartItem.prototype.shipping=function(){
// we are using a 'country' field to calculate the shipping,
// so we first make sure the item has a country

if(this.country){

if( this.country == 'United States' && this.quantity == '1'){
return this.quantity*5.00;

} else if( this.country == 'United States' && this.quantity >= '2') {
return this.quantity*3.00;

} else if( this.country == 'Belgium' && this.quantity == '1') {
return this.quantity*12.00;

} else if( this.country == 'Belgium' && this.quantity >= '2') {
return this.quantity*9.00;

else {
return this.quantity*0.00;
}
} else {
// use a default of $0.00 per item if there is no 'country' field
return this.quantity*0.00;
}
}
// --></script>

Code:

<div style="display:block;"></div>
<div>SHOPPING CART</div>
<div class="cartHeaders"></div><br><br><br>
<div class="simpleCart_items"></div>
<div id="totals">
Item Total: <span class="simpleCart_total"></span><br>Shipping Total: <span class="simpleCart_shippingCost"></span><br>Tax: <span class="simpleCart_taxCost"></span><br>Final Total: <span class="simpleCart_finalTotal"></span>
</div>
<br><br><br><br>

<a href="javascript:;" class="simpleCart_empty">Empty Shopping Cart</a><br><br>

Good morning! Hopefully somebody can help me with this javascript question. (No knowledge of Google Anayltics needed for this.) I'm adding Google Analytics 'Event Tracking' javascript to a typical 'Add to Cart' button. The customer enters desired quantity in the text box and clicks the 'Add to Cart' button to order. I would like to use the Event Tracking javascript to record the button click - plus the Value entered in the text box - as one event. Here's the code for the form (the text box and 'Add to Cart' button code lines are bold):

Code:

<form method="post" action="http://www.yoursite.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?">
<input type="hidden" name="Screen" value="BASK" />
<input type="hidden" name="Product_Code" value="yourproductcode" />
<input type="hidden" name="Action" value="ADPR" />
<label for="quantity">Quantity:</label>
<input type="text" name="quantity" value="0" />
<input type="submit" value="Add To Cart" />
</form>

I came up with this javascript for the Event Tracking (to be inserted somewhere above):

Code:

onClick="_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'OrderForms', 'AddToCart', 'yourproductcode', document.getElementByName('quantity').value]);"

I'm wondering where I would enter this javacript code inside the form code to pick up both the button click - plus the quantity? You'll notice that I'm using 'getElementByName' to extract 'quantity' from the text box and record its 'value'. If I enter this javascript on the 'Add to Cart' line - right after "Add to Cart", would 'quantity' still get picked up upon button-click - since it's all on the same form? Or would it be a problem because 'quantity' is contained in a different <input> container?

Thanks! Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think I have the regex side of this script worked out. But I need help getting everything into an array for regex to read.

Is there a way to use tokenizer to read everything before a carriage return? Each line should be added to an array for the regex to analyze and parse as needed. It's been ages since I touched tokenizer, so I forgot most of it. This is the text area in the html that the script should reference.

Code:

<textarea cols="60" rows="14" value="" id="paste" name="paste"></textarea>

Thanks so much for any help you can give.

Solved. thanks so much Phil!!!!

Hi, I have been working on a hangman game and I have run into a glitch. I have it coded so that when the user guesses a letter correct, the letter is filled into the corresponding text spot. Like this:
Code:

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 0)
{
document.form1.letter1.value = guess1
letter1 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 1)
{
document.form1.letter2.value = guess1
letter2 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) ==2)
{
document.form1.letter3.value = guess1
letter3 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 3)
{
document.form1.letter4.value = guess1
letter4 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 4)
{
document.form1.letter5.value = guess1
letter5 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 5)
{
document.form1.letter6.value = guess1
letter6 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 6)
{
document.form1.letter7.value = guess1
letter7 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 7)
{
document.form1.letter8.value = guess1
letter8 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 8)
{
document.form1.letter9.value == guess1
letter9 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 9)
{
document.form1.letter10.value = guess1
letter10 = guess1
}

if (randomword.indexOf(guess1) == 10)
{
document.form1.letter11.value = guess1
letter11 = guess1
}

The variable randomword is the randomly selected word from an array. The guess1 is the users guess. The letter variables are just to check to see if all the spots are filled to win the game. It works fine if the the word doesnt have repeating letters in it such as "Lucky". However words such as "Happy" do not work. If you guess 'p' code fills in the 3 text box with a 'P' but it leaves the 4 spot empty. Even if you guess 'p' again, it still leaves the 4 box empty. Thanks for the help! If you need to see the full code i can post it. Thanks again!

Here is yet another project of mine...ive got most done but the timers are working in milliseconds and the hours, minutes, and seconds arent working right. heres the code.

THE .JS FILE
Code:

/*  Function List:
   showDateTime(time)
      Returns the date in a text string formatted as:
      mm/dd/yyyy at hh:mm:ss am

   changeYear(today, holiday)
      Changes the year value of the holiday object to point to the
      next year if it has already occurred in the present year

   countdown(stop, start)
      Displays the time between the stop and start date objects in the
      text format:
      dd days, hh hrs, mm mins, ss secs
*/

function showDateTime(time) {
   date = time.getDate();
   month = time.getMonth()+1;
   year = time.getFullYear();

   second = time.getSeconds();
   minute = time.getMinutes();
   hour = time.getHours();

   ampm = (hour < 12) ? " am" : " pm";
   hour = (hour > 12) ? hour - 12 : hour;
   hour = (hour == 0) ? 12 : hour;

   minute = minute < 10 ? "0"+minute : minute;
   second = second < 10 ? "0"+second : second;

   return month+"/"+date +"/"+year+" at "+hour+":"+minute+":"+second+ampm;
}

function changeYear(today, holiday){
	year = today.getFullYear();
	holiday.setFullYear(year);
	(holiday < today) ? year++ : year;
	holiday.setFullYear(year);
    }

function countdown(start, stop) {
	time = stop - start;
	days = Math.floor(time/1000*60*60*24);
	hours = (days - Math.floor(days))*24;
	
	minutes = (hours - Math.floor(hours))*60;
	
	seconds = (minutes - Math.floor(minutes))*60;
	
	return days + " days," + hours + "hours," + minutes + " mins," + seconds + "secs";
    }

THE HTML FILE..
Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="dates1.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
	
	function showCountdown() {
		var today = new Date();
		var Date1 = new Date("January 14, 2007 10:00:00");

		var Date5 = new Date("December 1, 2007 11:30:00");
		var Date6 = new Date("December 31, 2007 15:30:00");
		document.eventform.thisDay.value = showDateTime(today);
		changeYear(today, Date1);
		changeYear(today, Date2);

		document.eventform.count6.value = countdown(today, Date6);
	}
</script>

<body onload="setInterval('showCountdown()' ,100)">

yes ive done all the coding just cant figure out why the timers wont work correctly.

I've been given this ridiculous assignment where I have to create a shopping web page. I really need help finding the javascript codes that will allow the user to update their total as they enter the quantities of the different products in the assigned text boxes.
I don't even know where to start because we were never taught how to do this in class!

I am looking for help to develop a java code for my e-commerce site mini cart.

I have looked locally (kijiji) and on Coding Forums market place and haven't received a great response. Either the person had other projects they were working on or they were trying to "sell" me more than what I was asking for (ie web and graphic design).

I have a mini cart on my site that I would like to have a few specific features. I am hoping someone in this forum can help me out (as I have received wonderful help before!!)

I need a javascript code/feature that will:

- highlight the most recent item that has been added to slide down mini cart window
- refresh the mini cart div content to update item count and price.
On the site I am hosted on there is a built in feature to show how many items are in the cart and total price, but I don't know how to get it to update successfully
- when slide down mini cart window refreshes it should'nt scroll to the top (if there is a scrollbar) ie: looking to implement a javascript: void (0) if possible
- have the slide down minicart window appear for 5-10 seconds then automatically slide back up.
(the visitor can also have the option to close the window before the 5 seconds)

I would really appreciate any help with this. I find javascript hard and I have tried to learn it, but unfortunately I can't seem to grasp it .

Hello All,

So, I have a website with a floating cart and it loads fine and works almost flawlessly lol. However, when a person has a bunch of items in their cart, and they want to minimize it for the rest of their browsing experience, every time a new page loads, or a refresh happens, the floating cart un-minimizes and expands out fully again displaying all the items.

This can become very annoying during the shopping experience when you have a bunch of items loading and just taking up space in the browser. Therefore, I am wondering if their is some html or script that would save the minimizing in the floating cart, and carry it over to the next page, and the rest of the browsing on site?

Thank you for any suggestions/help. I am new to HTML and script writing, but I am eager to learn. Hopefully in the future, I won't be paying for little changes like this every time I need one.

I need help in creating a multiple value cookie when the user clicks the Add to cart input button. Here is the portion of code from the html page that creates the inventory item display and the Add to cart button. There are six of these on the page:

Code:

<div id="inventoryspread">

       <div class='productBoxInvUL'>
        <script type:"text/javascript">
		document.write("<img src="+"'"+"images/"+arrImage[0]+"'"+"align='left'/>"+
					   "<p><br/><span class='invName'>"+arrName[0]+"</span></p>"+
          				"<p>"+arrDescription[0]+"</p>"+
		  				"<p>Item#&nbsp;"+arrItem[0]+"<br/>"+
						"<span class='invPrice'>"+arrPrice[0]+"</p>");
		</script>
        <input type="button" value="Add to Cart" onclick='createCookie("name, value, 7", prompt("cookie created"))' />
        </div>

And here is a portion of the array that fills it:

Code:

var arrItem = new Array();
var arrName = new Array();
var arrDescription = new Array();
var arrPrice = new Array();
var arrImage = new Array();


arrItem[0]= "FE100";
arrName[0]= "Blacktop Jazzmaster";
arrDescription[0]= "Monster dual-bucker tone. Vintage style alnico humbucking pickup, single coil, skirted black amp knobs, and 3-way toggle switch. Alder body, Maple neck, Rosewood fretboard, 21 medium jumbo frets, gloss urethane finish and nickel/chrome hardware.";
arrPrice[0]= "$699.00";
arrImage[0]= "FE100.png";

arrItem[1]= "FE200";
arrName[1]= "Roland-Ready Stratocaster";
arrDescription[1]= "Time-tested Fender tone, timeless styling, 3 single-coil pickups, synchronized tremolo, high-mass bridge block, shielded body cavities and medium jumbo frets. Built-in Roland GK-2A pickup system, tinted neck, parchment pickguard and control knobs, and a '70s-style logo.";
arrPrice[1]= "$1,019.00";
arrImage[1]= "FE200.png";

arrItem[2]= "FA100";
arrName[2]= "CD220SCE Exotics ";
arrDescription[2]= "Exotic and beautiful with rich tone, laminated burl ash back and sides, with a solid spruce top. Fender-designed dreadnought body, X-bracing, and die-cast tuners. Cutaway body design with  rosewood bridge featuring a compensated bone nut";
arrPrice[2]= "$629.00";
arrImage[2]= "FA100.png";

arrItem[3]= "FA200";
arrName[3]= "Dick Dale Mailbu SCE";
arrDescription[3]= "Thin folk body design, laminated spruce top, laminated mahogany back and sides, scalloped X-bracing providing well balanced tone. Maple neck, rosewood compensated bridge and fretboard, vintage-style Fender tuners, and a surfin' red paint job on the top and back";
arrPrice[3]= "$849.00";
arrImage[3]= "FA200.png";

arrItem[4]= "FB100";
arrName[4]= "Standard Precision Bass";
arrDescription[4]= "Sound, look, and feel today's bass players demand. Classic P-Bass old-school design. Contemporary features and refinements. Alder body and a split single-coil pickup, this classic electric bass guitar lives up to its Fender legacy."; 
arrPrice[4]= "$579.00";
arrImage[4]= "FB100.png";

arrItem[5]= "FB200";
arrName[5]= "Roger Waters Signature Precision Bass";
arrDescription[5]= "Tastefully tailored, black-on-black color scheme, Seymour Duncan Basslines SPB-3 Quarter-Pound split-coil Precision Bass pickup, knurled black control knobs, brass nut, black bridge and strap buttons, vintage '70s-style open-gear chrome tuners."; 
arrPrice[5]= "$1,199.00";
arrImage[5]= "FB200.png";

arrItem[6]= "GE100";
arrName[6]= "Firebird X Limited Edition";
arrDescription[6]= "Turbo-charged Pure-Analog engine. Hand-applied and unique high-end wood finish. Beautiful, historical and yet contemporary and unique. Limited run of just 1,800 units. It is sure to become a collector classic.";
arrPrice[6]= "$5,569.00";
arrImage[6]= "GE100.png";

The cookie only needs to include the Item#, Name and Price of each item to populate a shopping cart page.

This is only a small student project and is client side only using javascript. Thank you for any help we can get on this.
