Here

What do you think? i found a tutorial seems pretty good.

But what do people with experience think?

try admin_control.asp aswell.

Only issue is the post.asp doesnt want to work. If you do try it out, dont use real details. The email gets sent to my hotmail account.

Cheers

thats cool mate.

what tutorial did you use?

AdrianFRST

Should have a "remove item" button. It's not totally clear that to remove something you have to set quantity to zero and update cart.

You shouldn't need separate pages for each category of wine. You might need two pages if the attributes for the items shown differ, but you should be able to cater for that.

How is it storing the cart? Session vars or in the database? If it's in the db, how does it automatically empty the cart if the user abandons the session?

You could do with some validation to ensure the entry of address details. Forgive me if you'd planned to do this but hadn't got round to it yet. Both client side and server side is good, client side eg. alert box so users don't have to click back if they miss something and server side in case they have javascript disabled.

Search function would be nice too.

not say :d

purposly edited the advertising out the html.

Problem i have titan doesn use CDOmail so i need another solution.

Ive just done the Tutorial mate, I did notice no validation when i was playing with it.

Im pretty new to all this so trial and error really.

I think its stored in cookies, i know theres only 1 data base called prodocts stored at the root.

Ideally i want accounts created for the users, Also possibly an automated way its all processed.

Thanks

I just ordered some wines, will they be down in time for christmas?

AdrianFRST

You can use ASPMail for mail with Titan:

192.168.1.7 is the server you need to send mail.

Dim Mailer
Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("SMTPsvg.Mailer")
Mailer.FromName = "Joe Bloggs"
Mailer.FromAddress= "joe@bloggs.com"
Mailer.RemoteHost = "192.168.1.7"
Mailer.AddRecipient "John Smith", "john@smith.com"
Mailer.Subject = "Subject of the message"
Mailer.BodyText = "Your message body"
Mailer.SendMail
Set Mailer = Nothing

Just change the CDONTS createobject and vars to the ASPMail ones.

eg:

Set shopMail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

becomes:

Set shopMail = Server.CreateObject("SMTPsvg.Mailer")

You'll need to do the others, "from" becomes "fromName".

Look at my ASPMail example above and work it out. It's not that hard!

AdrianFRST

ps. It's always good practice to use <%Option Explicit%>

Makes for longer coding but usually ends up helping when things get more complex later on.

super_si

think i get you now

i was looking at it thinking well there variables but i never noticed the .from part

i was ripping the shopbody bit
