Shopping Cart using Array Question

TheJoey · August 31, 2009

I have a shopping cart using database to store information as most do.

I was wondering if i could store arrays such as.

array('Men\'s Roller Blades'=> array(
                            Price => 69.95,
                            Shipping => 0.10 //shipping as a % of price
                            ),
		'Women\'s Roller Blades'=> array(
                            Price => 63.95,
                            Shipping => 0.10 //shipping as a % of price
                            ),
            'Helmet'=> array(
                            Price => 34.99,
                            Shipping => 0.05 //shipping as a % of price
                        ),
		'Knee Pads'=> array(
                            Price => 22.99,
                            Shipping => 0.08 //shipping as a % of price
                        ),
            'Knee and Elbow Pads'=> array(
                            Price => 29.99,
                            Shipping => 0.08 //shipping as a % of price
                            ));

all call it up in this shopping cart script insted of the mysql querry

$cart = $_SESSION['cart'];
$action = $_GET['action'];
switch ($action) {
case 'add':
	if ($cart) {
		$cart .= ','.$_GET['id'];
	} else {
		$cart = $_GET['id'];
	}
	break;
case 'delete':
	if ($cart) {
		$items = explode(',',$cart);
		$newcart = '';
		foreach ($items as $item) {
			if ($_GET['id'] != $item) {
				if ($newcart != '') {
					$newcart .= ','.$item;
				} else {
					$newcart = $item;
				}
			}
		}
		$cart = $newcart;
	}
	break;
case 'update':
if ($cart) {
	$newcart = '';
	foreach ($_POST as $key=>$value) {
		if (stristr($key,'qty')) {
			$id = str_replace('qty','',$key);
			$items = ($newcart != '') ? explode(',',$newcart) : explode(',',$cart);
			$newcart = '';
			foreach ($items as $item) {
				if ($id != $item) {
					if ($newcart != '') {
						$newcart .= ','.$item;
					} else {
						$newcart = $item;
					}
				}
			}
			for ($i=1;$i<=$value;$i++) {
				if ($newcart != '') {
					$newcart .= ','.$id;
				} else {
					$newcart = $id;
				}
			}
		}
	}
}
$cart = $newcart;
break;
}
$_SESSION['cart'] = $cart;
