I have register_global = off. I know I have to use $HTTP_POST_VARS["VarName"] to refer to the variable but what if I need it in a calculation formula? and many variables in that formula. Ex:
<?php echo "<p>Your order is as follows:</p><br>"; echo $HTTP_POST_VARS["tireqty"]. " tires<br>"; echo $HTTP_POST_VARS["oilqty"]. " bottles of oil<br>"; echo $HTTP_POST_VARS["sparkqty"]. " spark plugs<br>"; $totalqty = 0; $totalamount = 0.00; define("TIREPRICE",100); define("OILPRICE",10); define("SPARKPRICE",4); ------------ This is where I would like to know how to proceed ------------------- $totalqty = $tireqty + $oilqty + $sparkqty; $totalamount = ($tireqty * TIREPRICE) + ($oilqty * OILPRICE) + ($sparkqty * SPARKPRICE); $totalamount = number_format($totalamount, 2); echo "<br>\n Items ordered: ".$totalqty."<br>\n"; echo "Subtotal: $".$totalamount."<br>\n"; $taxrate = 0.10; $totalamount = number_format($totalamount, 2); echo "Total including tax: $".$totalamount."<br>\n"; ?> Am I supposed to replace each variable with the the longer version? aka $HTTP_POST_VAR[]? $totalqty = $tireqty + $oilqty + $sparkqty; ---------- change it to ----------- $totalqty = $HTTP_POST_VAR["tireqty"] + $HTTP_POST_VAR["oilqty"] + $HTTP_POST_VAR["sparkqty"] and what about the $totalqty variable that has just been created? How do I refer to it? $HTTP_SESSION_VAR["totalqty"]? -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
