doublebassdanny Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Hey all, I'm sure this is very simple, but I have no php experience really so I am lost. Basically what my objective is is to build a small webpage with fields where the user selects certain words which contain values and then they hit submit. The values are calculated and presented to the user as the final price. The user can either decline this price or accept. Upon clicking accept, they are prompted for contact information and that contact information along with the final price they were presented with is emailed to an email address. Well, it doesn't sound so simple to me now, heh heh. Here's a perfect example of what I'm looking for though: http://www.accountbay.com/sell/register1.php Thanks in advance!

doublebassdanny Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 Thanks, that book looks helpful. I didn't really clarify this but I was wondering if there was some type of pre-made script available somewhere that could perform these functions or be modified to do so without a lot of php knowledge.

trq Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Without alot of php knowledge you will probably have a little difficulty but what your basically looking for sounds like a simple shoping cart. If you google php shopping cart I'm sure you will find many examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublebassdanny Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 It's actually going to be used as a value calculator for characters in World of Warcraft. It will allow a user to instantly get a quote on the value of their character based on it's different features then send that quote off to me for verification. But all the payments will be sent manually via PayPal. So in short, there's no payment system or anything I need attached. Just a value calculated, displayed and then e-mailed.

BlueSkyIS Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 you'll want to set up a MySQL database containing all character attributes, weapons, spells, skills, special abilities, tons of WoW items both normal and special, all given a value perhaps depending on character type, XP, etc. Then you'll need to provide a method for the user to set and/or select these values to query the database for an estimated character value. oh yeah, then email the results...
