[flexcoders] Re: getting the total of values of an array collection that is updated manually

[ZIONIST]

I have modified the app using Alex Harui's solution and it works when i add a 
product to the cart and also updates the total when i delete an item from the 
cart. But when i edit the quantity in the text input, the total does not get 
updated. Below is the modified version. Anything am missing?
