Just so happens I've been tasked with creating a "web 2.0" ordering system at my work, that is similar to what Andy is describing -- I've got the basics up and running -- check it out (not tested on Safari)
http://70.87.150.164/liveorder/main.cfm Type a single letter in the first field (anything but x or q I think), it will give you a list of products, select one then click "Add Product" - enter some quantities and you'll see the order total is calculated as you go. This uses AjaxCFC, and because it's all on one page, it makes it easier to do the instant total calculation -- at least you don't have to worry about keeping track of your frames and trying to do JS across pages. Matt I think once you got into it a bit you could figure out AJAX stuff...if I can do it anyone can...it's just taking that first leap... -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "James Holmes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 19, 2006 5:00 PM Subject: Re: One-to-many application on one screen > In a month you could write your own AJAX framework.
