Where do I begin? Been working to build some similar functionality to the below code using php. To do like they are doing on this site flooring site by converting quantities.

Pulled out this code out of the document to look at it a little closer. Pretty much want to create some of this usability standard in the business with php. Seems like most of the sites with similar capability are also .asp driven. Now php is awesome at doing behind the scenes conversions, but this one is a challenge.
<script language="javascript">
<!--
