I've got a problem with a shopping cart - I have some code that works fine but I need to convert a number to a string in order to pass the variable to the next page:

this is part of the code:

function CalcForm(theSel){
    var qty = Math.round(theSel.options[theSel.selectedIndex].value);
    if(qty == 1){
        var total = 2.17+1.20;
        document.myform.shipping.value = "£1.20";
    }else if(qty == 2){
        var total = 4.34+2.40;
        document.myform.shipping.value = "£2.40";

I need the 'qty == 2' for example to be 2 x product instead of 2;

Further on in the page I have a select box for the values:

 <select name="qty" onChange="CalcForm(this);">
                                      <option value="1" selected>Twin pack &pound;2.17</option>
                                      <option value="2">2 x Twin pack &pound;4.34</option>
                                                            </select>

I need the option value to read 2 x product or 1 x product, not just 1 or 2.

I'm stuck as to how to do this - can anyone help?

thanks

Adam

Hii Adam !!

Hope this will help you

<script>
function CalcForm(theSel)
{

    var qty = Math.round(theSel.options[theSel.selectedIndex].value);

   var qtyAmount =parseFloat((theSel.options[theSel.selectedIndex].text).split("£")[1]);



   if(qty == 1)
    {
        var total = qtyAmount+1.20;
        document.myform.shipping.value = "£1.20";
       document.myform.total.value = "£"+total;

    }
 else if(qty == 2){
        var total = qtyAmount+2.40;
        document.myform.shipping.value = "£2.40";
        document.myform.total.value ="£"+total;
    }


}

</script>

<form name="myform">
<table>
<tr><td>Quantity</td>
<td>
 <select name="qty" onChange="CalcForm(this)">
                                      <option value="1" selected>Twin pack &pound;2.17</option>
                                      <option value="2">2 x Twin pack &pound;4.34</option>
                                                            </select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Shipping</td>
<td><input type=text readonly name="shipping"></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Total</td>
<td><input type=text readonly name="total"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

Cheers :)
