Add to URL. Contents of Textbox

webbrowser

This is the code I have at the moment

echo "<td height=\"22\"><A HREF=\"cart.php?code=".$_GET['code']."&action=add&price=".number_format(($newresult[$count]->GrossAmount)/($newresult[$count]->QuantityOrdered), 2)."&id=".$newresult[$count]->ProductCode."&qty=1\">Add to Cart</a></td>";

As you can see from the code above each time this link is clicked it adds one to the cart. What I am trying to do is get a user to enter a value into a text box so that it updates the url as shown below.

What is the best way to go about this. Thanks for any replies or advice in advance.

Probably something like:

echo "blah blah blah &qty=" . urlencode($_GET['text_box_name']) . "blah blah blah";

PS: If the value is supposed to be an integer, you could force it to be so as:

echo "blah blah blah &qty=" . (int) $_GET['text_box_name'] . "blah blah blah";

Didn't work.

with ". (int) $_GET['itemqty']."

I get url....&qty=0

With " . urlencode($_GET['itemqty']) . "

I get url....&qty=

Which suggests to me that $GET['itemqty'] is empty or unset. Make sure that "itemqty" is exactly the same (case-sensitive) as the name attribute of the form field. Also, I am assuming the form is using method="get" due to the use of $GET elsewhere in your code; but if it's actually using method="post" then change $GET to $POST.

Nogdog I gave this a try and no success. Here is the code im using for textbox itemqty.

echo "<td height=\"22\">  Qty:<input type=\"text\" name=\"itemqty\" maxlength=\"2\" size=\"2\" value=\"\"/></td>";

Ok I've had another idea based upon jquery which I have found here

I have the textbox accepting values and updating

I have this working

Input
<td height=\"22\">Qty:<input class="itemqty" type="text" name="itemqty" maxlength="2" size="2"/></td>

Shows the Results of the input box
<td id="summation" align="center"><span id="sum">0</span></td>

I have highlighted the areas which I have changed to get it to work. What am I doing wrong??
echo "<td id=\"summation\"height=\"22\"><span id=\"sum\"><A HREF=\"cart.php?code=".$_GET['code']."&action=add&price=".number_format(($newresult[$count]->GrossAmount)/($newresult[$count]->QuantityOrdered), 2)."&id=".$newresult[$count]->ProductCode."&qty=0\">Add to Cart</a></span></td>";

Nearly there. This almost works. I don't know why it doesn't. Help!!!

if ($newresult[$count]->QuantitySupplied < $newresult[$count]->QuantityOrdered )
{

echo '<form name="myform" id="myform" method="get" action="cart.php?code='.$_GET['code'].'&action=add&price='.number_format(($newresult[$count]->GrossAmount)/($newresult[$count]->QuantityOrdered), 2).'&id='.$newresult[$count]->ProductCode.'&qty=itemqty" >';

echo '<td height="22">Qty:<input type="text" name="itemqty" maxlength="2" size="2"/></td>';

echo '<td height="22"><A HREF="#" onclick="document.myform.submit()">Add to Cart</a></form></td>';
}
