Shopping Cart : Product Quantity

admin — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 05:36:54 +0000

I found a few reason why using drop-down menu for product quantity instead of text field could be better (product_info.php and shopping_cart.php files):

With tracking inventory, it’s possible to setup a max number of products that could be added to the shopping cart
It’s easy to set a default value other than 1. For the parts store there is always required number of parts per assembly

function tep_select_quantity(
  $name = 'quantity',
  $start = '1', $end = MAX_QTY_IN_CART,
  $selected = 0, $param ='' ) {

  for( $i = $start; $i <= $end; ++$i ) {
    $quantity[] = array('id'   => $i, 'text' => ' ' . $i . ' ');
  }
  return tep_draw_pull_down_menu (
    $name, $quantity, $selected, "class=\"{$name}\" {$param}");
}

The method could be used with default values for most cases.
For the shopping cart page, as a parameter, we can pass a JavaScript as follows: onchange=”document.forms['cart_quantity'].submit ();”

With adding an additional link Remove, we don’t need Update’ button any longer. Check the web site to see this modification in action

Illegal characters

The page might contain illegal characters in text generated with tep_href_link () (html_output.php). Usually, it’s a ‘&’ within URL. return htmlspecialchars ($link); works better so far. Once again, it’s being tested in admin.

Empty TABLE tag

It could be done already by somebody else, it’s ok. I am trying to keep somewhere the list of bugs I had to fix.

If the the menu is “closed”, no option is shown, the class ‘table_block’ in admin/includes/classes/ will generate the empty ‘table’ tags, so any validation will fail. There is, probably, the same issue with catalog, I had no chance to look at that yet.
