PHP and Actinc Verables

[CCT.Darren]

OK I know I said PHP but I changed it to Javascript, I am now working on the PHP version.


I am working on our own custom out of stock system, I know there a way of doing it in the advanced guild but I dont want to do it that way, what I like to do is add my own system using PHP or Javascript.

I can get it to display the out of stock message oK but when it comes to adding the add to cart button I am having a few problems.

Can any one give me any advice.

I tried this in javascript:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">

var stockl=<actinic:variable name="StockLevel" />;
var outstock=0

if (stockl == outstock) {
document.write("Out of stock")
}
else {
document.write ("<actinic:variable name="AddToCartButton" />");
}

</script>

and almost simalert in PHP but not sure how to tell it to wright the add to cart button so that it works.

I know a javascript pritty well a bit of a new commer to php but I am picking that up quick but not sure how to proced with the actinic veriables wright back.

<actinic:block php="true">
$currentstocklev='<actinic:variable name="StockLevel" />';
$outofstocklev='0';
$instocklev ='1';

echo "$currentstocklev";
echo "<br>";
echo "$outofstocklev";
echo "<br>";
echo "$instocklev";

if ($outofstocklev == $currentstocklev) {
echo "Out of stock";
} elseif ($instocklev == $currentstocklev) {
echo '<actinic:variable name="AddToCartButton" />';
} else {
echo "PHP Error";
}

</actinic:block>

Lines like

echo '<actinic:variable name="AddToCartButton" />';

should be

echo '<actinic:variable name="AddToCartButton" encoding="perl" selectable="false" />';

Also why not look at Conditions - there's already one in the Design / Library / Conditions / Product / IsInStock

containing

(<actinic:variable name="IsStockMonitored" /> == FALSE) OR (<Actinic:Variable Name="StockLevel"/> >= <Actinic:Variable Name="StockSuspendLevel"/>)
