okay, what im tring to do it make a quote page.
like take these from fields and make it add all these togather
and then send it to the successquote.php .

i was thinking something like this

<?
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 159;
$total_4 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 189;

$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 159;
$total_4 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 189;

$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 159;
$total_4 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 189;

$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 159;
$total_4 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 189;
?>

<? $finaltotal = $total_1 + $total_2 + $total_3 + $total_4; ?>
Your total is <? $finaltotal; ?>

But this doesnt work...
help....hehe

[kevinsequeira]

<?
$total_1 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] * 89;
$total_2 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] *129;
$total_3 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] *159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] *189;

$total_1 = $total_1 + $_POST['Dentsize2'] * 89;
$total_2 = $total_2 + $_POST['Dentsize2'] *129;
$total_3 = $total_3 + $_POST['Dentsize2'] *159;
$total_4 = $total_4 + $_POST['Dentsize2'] *189;

$total_1 = $total_1 + $_POST['Dentsize3'] * 89;
$total_2 = $total_2 + $_POST['Dentsize3'] *129;
$total_3 = $total_3 + $_POST['Dentsize3'] *159;
$total_4 = $total_4 + $_POST['Dentsize3'] *189;

$total_1 = $total_1 + $_POST['Dentsize4'] * 89;
$total_2 = $total_2 + $_POST['Dentsize4'] *129;
$total_3 = $total_3 + $_POST['Dentsize4'] *159;
$total_4 = $total_4 + $_POST['Dentsize4'] *189;
?>

<? $finaltotal = $total_1 + $total_2 + $total_3 + $total_4; ?>
Your total is <? $finaltotal; ?>

i just tried that...and i still cant get it to work....

here is where the code is http://www.dynoserv.com/quote.php
Can you think of another way of doing this ?

Thanks

[kevinsequeira]

change
Your total is <? $finaltotal; ?>

to

Your total is <?php echo $finaltotal; ?>

[Dynoserv]

hey kevin THANKS ALOT....:-D

I got it to add right.... but now when you leave one of the drop down fields on "0" it doesnt add... it says your total is "0"

got any idea's ??
Michael

here is the code i got now that works:

<?php
$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] *189;

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize2'] *189;

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 0;

$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize3'] *189;

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 0;

$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize4'] *189;

?>

<? $finaltotal = $total_0 + $total_1 + $total_2 + $total_3 + $total_4; ?>
Your total is <?php echo $finaltotal; ?>

[kevinsequeira]

i thought u where using $total_0 = $total_0 + $_POST['Dentsize2'] * 0;

and so on, if u arent then it will show zero cause ure multiplying the variable by 0

reg
kevin

[Dynoserv]

okay kevin....

click here
when i use the code you give me... it doesnt add it right...
but it does add it , when i use the other code, but when i leave one of the variables at 0...so another words...

2+0+0+0 will equal = 178
or 1+1+0+0 = 278

when i use your code it makes this
1+0+0+0 = 566

thats where im having a problem

[Dynoserv]

maybe i explained it right...
i hope so..and i do thank you for yall your help sir

Michael

[kevinsequeira]

well im not sure about your code logic , let me eplain why
<?php
$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize1'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] *189;

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize2'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize2'] *189;

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize3'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize3'] *189;

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize4'] *189;

?>

u do realize that the first 3 blocks of code have no effect cause u are overwriting the values of $total_0, $total_1, $total_2, $total_3, $total_4 in the last block, so in effect ure actual code is

$total_0 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 0;
$total_1 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 89;
$total_2 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 129;
$total_3 = $POST['Dentsize4'] 159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize4'] *189;

is that what u want ?

okay...i see that now...

let me explain this

here is my successquote.php code
<?php

$total_1 = $total_1 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 89;
$total_2 = $total_2 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 129;
$total_3 = $total_3 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 159;
$total_4 = $total_4 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 189;

?>

<? $finaltotal = $total_1 + $total_2 + $total_3 + $total_4; ?>
Your total is <?php echo $finaltotal; ?>

and i have 4 drop down variables and if i hit the drop down menu on just one of them and set it to just say 2 and the other 3 drop down variables are still set at 0 the when i hit get quote is says
Your total is 0
cause its like i have to have all the drop down variables at lease set on at lease 1 .

what do i need to do about this...

link for the problem....
if you just select one of them and hit quote then you will see the problem Click here

Thanks again for your quick replys
Michael

[kevinsequeira]

well again its a problem with ure code logic

<?php

$total_1 = $total_1 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 89;
$total_2 = $total_2 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 129;
$total_3 = $total_3 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 159;
$total_4 = $total_4 + $POST['Dentsize2'] 189;

?>

<? $finaltotal = $total_1 + $total_2 + $total_3 + $total_4; ?>
Your total is <?php echo $finaltotal; ?>

ure using Dentsize2 for all. i think this is how the final code should be

<?php


$total_1 = $_POST['Dentsize1'] * 89;
$total_2 = $_POST['Dentsize2'] *129;
$total_3 = $_POST['Dentsize3'] *159;
$total_4 = $_POST['Dentsize4'] *189;
$finaltotal = $total_1 + $total_2 + $total_3 + $total_4; 
echo "Your total is ". $finaltotal; 
?>
