Subject: Shopping Cart Code incomplete
Posted By: dipeshedesign Post Date: 6/12/2008 5:24:26 PM
Hi,

Just to note I have tried the shopping cart example from chapter 08 and the cart.php code is incomplete and does not work. The <form> is not closed with a </form> and the select is also not closed with </select>.

But the main thing is that even after I fixed the code the 'update' cart does not post at all.

Wondering if you could provide any suggestions.

cheers.

It looks like the sprintf() that creates the necessary query is missing a formatting specifier.  Using the inventory_process.php script from the downloadable source files as a reference, the statement that starts on line 133 should read:

$query = sprintf('INSERT INTO %sSHOP_INVENTORY (ITEM_NAME, ' .
    'ITEM_DESCRIPTION, PRICE, ITEM_IMAGE, CATEGORY_ID) VALUES ' .
    '("%s", "%s", %02f, "%s", %d)',
    DB_TBL_PREFIX,
    mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name'], $GLOBALS['DB']),
    mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['description'], $GLOBALS['DB']),
    $_POST['price'],
    mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['image'], $GLOBALS['DB']),
    $_POST['cat_id']);
