Hi guys, I will like to insert a countdown timer of 5 mins after form has been submitted to a php page. At the moment when they submit the form they see the date and time they submitted: echo date("M d Y H:i", time()) "; Any ideas?

Oh it is working now thanks!

Thanks a lot for that. I inserted that but I was getting error messages. Where exactly do I place it?

This is the section of my form: <input type="checkbox" name="whatever[]" value="Book1"> <input type="checkbox" name="whatever[]" value="Book2"> <input type="checkbox" name="whatever[]" value="Book3"> And here is my php so far: $pricelist_book = 11.99; if(isset($_POST['whatever'])) { for ($i=0; $i<count($_POST['whatever']);$i++) { echo "<br />" . $_POST['whatever'][$i] . "<br /><br />". "(". "€". $pricelist_book . " " . "each" . ")" ."<br /><br />"; } } That should (I hope) pick up whatever was selected from the checkboxes (some or all) and display the price after it. (same price for each). However, what I would like to see is for it to display the price of 2 books or 3 books if selected.

I think I will try removing the hidden fields containing the prices and see if I work it into the php page.

Thanks for that. I tried using it but it didn't work. I am sure I am doing it wrong.

Do you think it would be easier to leave out the hidden fields for the prices and just produces the prices in the php?

I made an attempt at an array but it gave me all sorts of error messages. For the names of each radiobutton I place [] at the end and in the php page I tried an if statement that echoed Latteprice + sizeprice[0] etc The form is on an html page and when submitted it goes to an order.php page. http://www.dairegoodwin.ie/auth2/slideform/

I have tried a few different things but can't seem to get it to work properly!

Basically, I have a series of radio buttons (wanted checkboxes) were people select either Latte, Mocha or Cappuccino. I have included a hidden field for a price and using that to bring in the prices and add them up. <label for"Latte">Latte <br />&#8364; 2.15</label> <br /> <input type="radio" name="coffee" id="Latte" value="Latte"> <input name="LattePrice" type="hidden" value="2.15"> </p> <p> <label>Mocha <br /> &#8364; 2.25</label> <br /> <input type="radio" name="coffee" id="Mocha" value="Mocha"> <input name="MochaPrice" type="hidden" value="2.25"> </p> <p> <label>Cappucino <br /> &#8364;2.35</label> <br /> <input type="radio" name="coffee" id="Cappucino" value="Cappucino"> <input name="CappPrice" type="hidden" value="2.35"> </p> The next section they choose the size they want Small, Medium or Large. <p> <label for="latteSmall">Small </label><img src="images/latte.png" alt="Small Latte" width="36" height="36"> <input type="radio" name="size" id="LatteSmall" value="Small"> <input name="SizePrice" type="hidden" value="0.00"> </p> <p> <label for="LatteMedium">Medium <br /> + &#8364; 0.25 </label> <img src="images/latte.png" alt="Medium Latte" width="42" height="42"> <input type="radio" name="size" id="LatteMedium" value="Medium"> <input name="SizePrice" type="hidden" value="0.25"> </p> <p> <label for="latteLarge">Large <br /> + &#8364; 0.45 </label> <img src="images/latte.png" alt="Large Latte" width="49" height="49"> <input type="radio" name="size" id="LatteLarge" value="Large"> <input name="SizePrice" type="hidden" value="0.45"> </p> I chose radio buttons to limit the users choice to one coffee and one size to make life easier (for myself). Ideally I wanted to use checkboxes but I could not get the php working. So basically, If Latte is selected echo it and the size. echo "Hi ". $name. ", " . "here is your order:" . "<br /> <br />"; echo "<strong>" . "Coffee:" . "</strong>" . "<br />" . $size . " " . $coffee . "<br /><br />"; That works fine but the pricing is coming out wrong as I was using: if ($coffee == "Latte") { $TotalCoffeePrice = $LattePrice + $SizePrice; echo "&#8364; " . $TotalCoffeePrice . "<br /> <br />"; } elseif ($coffee == "Mocha") { $TotalCoffeePrice = $MochaPrice + $SizePrice; echo "&#8364; " . $TotalCoffeePrice . "<br /> <br />"; } elseif ($coffee == "Cappucino") { $TotalCoffeePrice = $CappPrice + $SizePrice; echo "&#8364; " . $TotalCoffeePrice . "<br /> <br />"; } What is happening here is if you select Latte and then Small it was adding Small, Medium and Large prices to the Latte. So instead of 2.15 I was getting 2.80 or something like that. Obviously when I recognised this I tried an array but that just went arseways!! Also, at the end of the php I was hoping to total up everything that they chose with: $TotalPrice = ($TotalCoffeePrice + $SizePrice + $MuffinPrice + $SamboPrice); echo "<strong>" . "Total Price:" . "</strong>" . "<br />" . "&#8364; " .$TotalPrice . "<br /><br />"; However, this was giving a total of 9.80 even when nothing was selected!
