mo Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I am currently rewriting my shopping cart application using codeigniter. My current cart has one cart table that holds product and options(sub items/attributes). The options data is stored in the cart table in one field as a string with each option separated by commas. For example, say I have a shirt with many add-on options, my cart record for this shirt would look like the following. Data: Blue short sleeve shirt product ID ABC123, size large with added embroidery(E01), and stain fighter(SF1) DB Table structure -------------------------------------------------------------------------- cart_session_id | cart_id | prod_id | price | size | options ------------------------------------------------------------------------- dsjkdjbfdjbf120 | 00001 | ABC123 | 15.00 | L | E01,SF1 _______________________________________________ Is this a good design or should I build a separate table for the cart's product options? Thanks in advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
