From Form -> Checkout, Please help :)

[RyanTuosto]

My form keeps a running total of the price of the services the user selects.

What I want is, upon "submit" the form sends the total value to an online checkout and the choices made on the form to my email.

How do I go about doing this?

Thanks!

You would make the "action" script of the form (form action="somefile.php"). The file, somefile.php, would calculate the total, send you an email and forward the user to your online checkout. Are you having problems with any of these steps or just wanting to figure out the method?

Thanks for your reply.

I know the theory of how to do what I want, as I have some experience with ruby on rails, but nothing in php. So the application of that theory is where my knowledge ends.

I don't want to install rails on this site, its overkill and unnecessary for this.

thanks again.

uncalled for xav! Well if you want to do this in PHP, you would have to first learn PHP!

Quite simple! Look for it maconstate tutorials online, or w3schools or some other tutorial site!

Thanks for that! I was gonna post it, but couldn't find it. lol

Good luck! Of course you could always find a pre-written script. If you don't want to bother learning the language.

I have it in my bookmarks, just in case I need some rep.
