Hi,
I can think of 2 solutions:
1 is an old one I used ages ago, and it was to use javascript to put their
choices (onclick, field.value=£3 type of thing) and when they click the OK
button it gets sent to php script that sends it to mysql, etc.
2 is pretty much the same but using cookies with javascript.
Example : --
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- Hide from old browsers
//Hide from Java Script
function cookieVal(cookieName) {
thisCookie = document.cookie.split("; ");
for (i=0; i<thisCookie.length; i++) {
if (cookieName == thisCookie[i].split("=")[0]) {
return thisCookie[i].split("=")[1];
}
}
return 0;
}
//-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- Hide from old browsers
//Hide from Java Script
function SetCookie(value1,value2,value3){
var greetName = cookieVal("mysession");
if(greetName == 0){
document.cookie = "mysession" + "=" + value1 + ":" + value2 + ":" + value3
+":1%" + "; path=/; expires=19 January 2038 03:14:07";
var addme= value +":1%";
}
else{
document.cookie = "mysession" + "=" + greetName + value1 + ":" + value2 +
":" + value3 + ":1%" + "; path=/; expires=19 January 2038 03:14:07";
var addme = value +":1%";
}
theURL="http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/showbasket.cgi?cookievalue="+addme;
winName="order3";
features="scrollbars=yes,width=400,height=600";
child = window.open(theURL,winName,features);
child.focus();
}
//-->
</script>
<a href="#"><img src="images/image1.jpg" alt="image1" width="80" hspace="5"
vspace="3" border="0"
onClick="javascript:SetCookie('555435,£3,image1');">"></a>Hope this helps.
Han.
