Major Help Needed For a Newbie

@raniMay 10.2005

Hi guys I need some serious help

I created some inventory pages as a subsidiary of a quote page.
In these pages I am calculating the total weight (per page) and displaying it to the user in a field called “tot”. How do I transfer/feed the tot filed in the quote page?
Please help .

@scragarMay 10.2005 — #is the quote page in a frame or are you wanting it passed via cookies or what?

@raniauthorMay 10.2005 — #i am new to the business and was actually looking for an advice.

if you wish to see the pages then the URL is:

www.stevensmovers.com/quote.html

and for the inventory pages just click on inventory.

Thanks

@scragarMay 10.2005 — #I would use cookies.

and add a link from the invetory page, the info goes no-where.

@raniauthorMay 10.2005 — #ok,

how do i do that ? as i said i am a newbie and this is the first site i am developing.

@scragarMay 10.2005 — #document.cookie = "cookieName=CookieValue";

EG:

//record tot

document.cookie = "totalWeight="+tot;

//retrive tot

tot = ("0"+((document.cookie+"totalWeight=").split("totalWeight=")[1]+";").split(";")[0]) / 1;

//check it

alert(tot);

@raniauthorMay 10.2005 — #i do apologize for nagging you but could you elaborate a bit ?

like where do i put this cookie and how do i use it ?

i never done that in my life

Cheers

@scragarMay 11.2005 — #current(inventory):

[code=php]function calc(){
 //var ff=document.forms[0]
 var ff=document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT"),f=ff.length,t=0,z;
 while(f--){
 if(ff[f].type=="text" && !isNaN(ff[f].value)){
 z=ff[f].parentNode.previousSibling;
 while(z.nodeType!=1) z=z.previousSibling;
 t+= z.firstChild.data * ff[f].value;
 } 
 }
 document.getElementById("tot").firstChild.data=t;
 }[/code]

try:

[code=php]function calc(){
 //var ff=document.forms[0]
 var ff=document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT"),f=ff.length,t=0,z;
 while(f--){
 if(ff[f].type=="text" && !isNaN(ff[f].value)){
 z=ff[f].parentNode.previousSibling;
 while(z.nodeType!=1) z=z.previousSibling;
 t+= z.firstChild.data * ff[f].value;
 } 
 }
 document.getElementById("tot").firstChild.data=t;
 document.cookie = "totalWeight="+tot;
 }[/code]

then where-ever you need to read it just add:
[code=php]var tot = ("0"+((document.cookie+"totalWeight=").split("totalWeight=")[1]+";").split(";")[0]) / 1;[/code]
