ImJustBrndn Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 I have a shopping cart system setup and I currently have it forwarding each order in an e-mail to myself. I would like to instead post the information to my database and then somehow create a template page (to look like an invoice) and be able to post all the information from the database for each order in this template. I'm a semi php beginner and could someone please point me in a good direction to start. Like posting information to a database instead of a form? Thanks in advance.Brandon Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/22458-posting-form-data-to-database-and-invoice-system/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveclondon Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 You need to see if you have mysql database available on your server. This is the best route first.

HuggieBear Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 As you have a cart setup already, you're implying that people can order multiple products as once, which means that you must be storing the data somehow already, probably in session variables. Is your cart coded in PHP?This may not actually be too difficult.RegardsHuggie Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/22458-posting-form-data-to-database-and-invoice-system/#findComment-100788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImJustBrndn Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 Mysql databases are available on my server and yes I store all the information in a session called "cart".
