Cannot use shopping cart script on page 31 of Advanced Users Guide

[Mr Wiggly]

Help!

I have been trying to use the script for displaying the number of items and total cost but I cannot get it to work.

I can however display the number of items and total cost if I just use :

document.write getCartItem(3)
document.write getCartItem(1)

but as soon as I put them within an 'if' statement nothing happens.

I would be most grateful for any suggestions.

Would it be possible for you to post the implementation of the if statement?

[Mr Wiggly]

This is what I copied from the Advanced users guide.



(in between the HEAD tags)


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="actinicextras.js"
TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>

(and in the BODY)


<span class="actxxsmall">
<script language="JavaScript">
if (getCartItem(3) < 1)
{
document.write("Your cart is empty")
}
else
{
document.write("You have ordered ")
document.write(getCartItem(3) + " item");
if (getCartItem(3) > 1)
{
document.write("s");
}
document.write("<br>at a cost of " + getCartItem(1));
}
</script>
</span>

Maybe I'm missing something

There's nothing inherently wrong with the code as far as I can see, and testing it offline, it works fine. Unfortunately, I can't test it with items in the cart without doing an upload, but it definately works to tell me I have no items in the cart.

Do you have it uploaded anywhere at the moment? Does the script throw up any errors? What output are you getting, if any?

Thanks.

[Mr Wiggly]

Sorry,

I must have mistyped or something!

I've cut and pasted it from the A.U.G. and it's working fine now.

Many thanks
