Microsoft Front Page

arsmjg3 · Jul 30, 2001

Hi:
I am trying to build a website with Front Page. I am almost done with it. The only thing I need to finish, is the final fields on my order submission form.

What I want to do is to take the value from the item drop down quantity text box, multiply that by the price box, and calculate the total into a "Total" text box.

The final part is to take the items ordered and out put it to text message/box.

I cannot use Visual Basic to create the forms needed, because the web page will not run the exe ?

Can you help ?

Goes in the <head> area:[/red]

<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>

//these are my global variables;
var ItemPrice = 10.95;
var SubTotal = "0.00";
var MyJavaQuantity = "0";

function formatNum(expr,decplaces) {
var str = (Math.round(parseFloat(expr) * Math.pow(10,decplaces))).toString()

while (str.length <= decplaces) {
str = "0" + str
}
var decpoint = str.length - decplaces
return str.substring(0,decpoint) + "." + str.substring(decpoint,str.length)
}

function makeSubTotal() {

MyJavaQuantity = document.MYINPUT.MyQuantity.selectedIndex;
SubTotal = ItemPrice * MyJavaQuantity;
SubTotal = formatNum(SubTotal,2);
document.MYINPUT.MySubTot.value = SubTotal;
ProcessOrderForm();

}

This goes on the input type = select

onblur=makeSubTotal()

Try this out. If it does't work email me I will send you the complete cose in it's existing context (too much for here)
