Additonal Info value

[minolka]

Hi All,

I need to use the additional info as a numeric value and multiply it by number of items. Any hints.

Thanks,

Lee

When you get into AddToCart function, you will have to change the Additional info into a number using either parseInt(additionalinfo) or parseFloat(additionalinfo). They appear as strings (text) leaving the product order form..

Hi Randy,

It sounds a bit complicated. Is it possible for you to give me a hint on how to add a new value. I have used the shipping value as a point system for the products but now we need a method to assign a weight times quantity without going into the shipping value. Can you please give me some sort of detailed instruction?

Thanks,

Lee

add this in the initial section under in your nopcart.js file:
FUNCTION: AddToCart

Code: Select all

   if ( thisForm.ADDITIONALINFO == null ) { //this is changed so a value can be used for additionalinfo for example: cases have a hidden value of 12 & bottles have a hidden value of 1
      strADDTLINFO = "";
   } else {
      strADDTLINFO = thisForm.ADDITIONALINFO.value;
   }

then add this in the initial section, then in the managecart section and the checkout section

Code: Select all

fields[5] = database.substring( Token4+1, database.length );

for example whenever you see this:

Code: Select all

for ( i = 1; i <= iNumberOrdered; i++ ) {
      NewOrder = "Order." + i;
      database = "";
      database = GetCookie(NewOrder);

      Token0 = database.indexOf("|", 0);
      Token1 = database.indexOf("|", Token0+1);
      Token2 = database.indexOf("|", Token1+1);
      Token3 = database.indexOf("|", Token2+1);
      Token4 = database.indexOf("|", Token3+1);

      fields = new Array;
      fields[0] = database.substring( 0, Token0 );                 // Product ID
      fields[1] = database.substring( Token0+1, Token1 );          // Quantity
      fields[2] = database.substring( Token1+1, Token2 );          // Price
      fields[3] = database.substring( Token2+1, Token3 );          // Product Name/Description
      fields[4] = database.substring( Token3+1, Token4 );          // Shipping Cost
      fields[5] = database.substring( Token4+1, database.length ); //Additional Information
      //(cases have a hidden value of 12 & bottles have a hidden value of 1)

so for example this below allows me to do the following calculation and place in the variable named "Qtyship" I created, thus fields 1* fields 5 = (qty chosen) * (additionalinfo value)

Qtyship += parseInt( fields[1] * parseFloat(fields[5])); //Variable for the Dropdown Calculation below

Search the mods section for shipping by weight and adding new fields to the order cookie...

OK, Its 03:49 AM. I can not go on any longer. The shipping by weight is done but I am still having trouble with the additional var. I added two additional var according to the mod and have done everything up to adding;

<input type="hidden" name="PUNTOS" value="21">
<input type="hidden" name="PUNTOS2" value="0">

I dont see the new var when I run the test to see which var is going through.

HELP!!
