Photo-Graffix -> Checkout Page - Webmaster Forums - Webmaster forum for HTML, PHP, ASP, CSS and more

Hi all,

I need to write up a simple checkout page in php. But this will need to be 'connected' in a 'variable sense' with photo-graffix gallery.

I have some code but very little, that's why I am here for some help.

Ok, first I would download a demo of the program (unless you that good, and don't need it)...

I have a demo of Photo-Graffix 3.3

Code:

http://www.photo-graffix.com/trial.php

Ok, to begin...

To get a variable to be echoed out to the 'checkout.php' page using photo-graffix is like such:

Where ever you put this code in the checkout.php page:

Code:

<?php $name = $_GET['photoname']; echo $name ?>

It will display the name of the image name that you specify on the url string such as 'YourPic' (without the quotes) as specified in the url below.

Code:

http://www.yourdomain.com/graffix/checkout.php?photoname=YourPic

Note: YourPic (as specified in the above url) can be anything, I will use it for the item number for each image in the gallery. Also, if anyone has another suggestion for the url above that will substitute 'YourPic' for a variable based on the image clicked on in the gallery (not sure if photo-graffix works like that), but that would be awesome if you found out, so I don't have to type in each item number for each url. But if need be, I will do it.

Now I also would need the description to be echoed out onto the checkout page as well, keep in mind this is only a basic checkout page, so not to be technical. Now I haven't tested the code below so I don't know if it works, but I will need the description as well to be echoed to the checkout page. This code was emailed to me from photo-graffix, they said it works. I haven't tested it yet though.

Code:

http://www.yourdomain.com/gallery/checkout.php?item=photoname&description=photodescr

Now that you know that, a basic checkout page may look like this:

[HTML]
Checkout Page
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td> Item Name:  <?php $name = $_GET['photoname']; echo $name ?> </td>
</tr>
</table>
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td>Quantity: 
<input type="text" name="T1" size="2"> </td>
</tr>
</table>
 
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="240" width="596">
<tr>
<td height="20"> First Name: 
<input type="text" name="fname" size="17">

*</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="20"> Last Name: 
<input type="text" name="lname" size="29">

*</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="20"> Street Address:
<input type="text" name="address" size="31"> 
* (Please Include Apt #,
Suite #, Floor Etc.)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="20"> City: 

<input type="text" name="city" size="24">
*</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="20"> State: 

<input type="text" name="State" size="2" value="NJ">
*</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="20"> Zip Code:
<input type="text" name="address5" size="9">
* (Zip+4 Ok)</td>
</tr>
</table>

*
Denotes Required Field
<a href="print.php">Print Order</a>[/HTML]

Ok..Now for the 'tough' part it's making me

Been try so hard to get this, need help bad here.

I want to add a simple checkout.php page that can do the following:

1. Save sessions (very simple shopping cart) so more than one item can be added to the checkout.php page
2. Make Printer Friendly (so the page can be printed on paper without problems)

Here's a page where php session help with refresh your memory if need be.

Code:

I Thank all who help with this project!
