php/mysql problem


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hey all,

Problem: im trying to setup a shop where people can use a drop-down list to select the amount of items they would like to purchase, then when they click on the "buy" button it uses ajax to update the database with the amount they selected.
The problem is it will only get the number in the first drop down list. so if the first list is 1 and you select 5 in the second box (because you want 5 of the second item) it will only add one of the first item.
Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
As the script stands at the moemnt, it will add whatever is in the first dropdown box, but will add the right item, so even if i chose 5 item2's it will only add 1 item2 at the price for item1.

I have worked out how to solve THAT problem, where the function showUser() is i can add strings in there (showUser(itemname,cost,etc etc)) but then it doesnt get the quantity of the item so will still only add one of the item.

Can someone please help me solve this issue.
Here are my pages:

selectuser.js:
Code: var xmlHttp;

function showUser(str)

if (xmlHttp==null)
{
alert ("Browser does not support HTTP Request");
return;

var myid = document.getElementById('myid').value;

and the file that updates the database shopbuy.php:
<?php
$con = mysql_connect('localhost', 'username', 'pasword');
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("game", $con);

$id=$_GET['myid'];
$cost=$_GET['cost'];
$quantity=$_GET['q'];
$dbname=$_GET['dbname'];
$attack=$_GET['attack'];
$defense=$_GET['defense'];

$totcost = ($quantity*$cost);

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * from users WHERE fbuser_id = '$id'");
while ($s = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$mymoney = $s['money'];
}

if ($mymoney<$totcost) {
header ("Location: ../shop.php?error=2");
die();
}
$totatt = ($attack*$quantity);
$totdef = ($defense*$quantity);

$sql = "UPDATE users SET money=money-$totcost, attack=attack+$totatt, defense=defense+$totdef, $dbname=$dbname+$quantity WHERE fbuser_id = '$id'";
mysql_query($sql);

echo "<div class="rewards"><span class="rewards_title">Purchased $quantity $dbname for $totcost </span></div>";

mysql_close($con);
?>

This is really annoying and would appreciate any help.

Thanks
