Hiya
I’m not sure if this scenario is unique to me but would appreciate any ideas on the best way forward.
Scenario:
I have a .php page outside the Acatalog folder. On this page the customer has to enter a CODE and a test is done on this CODE.
If CODE is incorrect:
Take customer to the confirmation.php page, tell them it was an incorrect CODE and give them the option to go back to the index page.
If CODE is correct:
Take customer to the confirmation.php page and tell them the CODE entered was correct and then give them the option to go ahead and buy the product. If they click the “buy now” button they will go to the product page in the Acatalog folder where they can make the purchase as per usual.
PROBLEM:
I need to carry over the variable holding the CODE they entered in the .php page into the checkout stage and include it in:
1) The email the customer gets.
2) (If possible & preferably), in the actual order information one gets when downloading the order off Actinic.
I have scouted the forum and seen info on using the ‘user definable fields’ in the Invoice Address part of “'Design | Text | Web SIte (cont)”. I have also seen info on using Norman Rouxel’s ‘MultipleOtherInoPrompts’.
Any idea’s on the best way of doing this. It’s only one extra field that is required in the checkout stage but the problem is that the field must be populated with a variable passed to it from a .php page outside the Acatalog folder.
Many thanks,
hp.
