I am learning to build a shopping cart
I see carts where the have a add to cart image
and when they click that it only sends the text field
value associated to that image.
When you click the image all my text fields are passed.
How do I associate a text field with a submit button
without creating forms for each.
example of what I am trying to accomplish is the following.
Even though there are many textfields with a quantity only the
quantity associated with the add to cart button gets sent.
how is this accomplished.
My example
<?php
include("basket.php");
?>
