I've created a shopping html form and servlet for it,and I want to do this :Return a web page summarising the cost for each item.
and Add the totals up and provide a grand total.
But all information (apart from quantities) are listed as 0 or null when trying to display the output, could anyone help? I have included my code if anyone fancies giving me a few tips!!
part code...
Html form
<FORM action='../servlet/SimpleShoppingBasket' method='POST'>
<TR><TH ALIGN='center' VALIGN='top'>Item</TH>
<TH ALIGN='center' VALIGN='top'>Unit Price (£)</TH>
<TH ALIGN='center' VALIGN='top'>Quantity</TH></TR>
<TR><TD ALIGN='center' VALIGN='top' COLSPAN=3>
<tr>
<td> <b>Socks</b> </td>
<td> 4 </td>
<td> <SELECT NAME='choices'>"
"<OPTION>0</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>1</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>2</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>3</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>4</OPTION>"
"</SELECT>
</td>
</td>
</tr>
<td> <b>Shirt </b> </td>
<td> 16 </td>
<td> <SELECT NAME='choices1'>"
"<OPTION>0</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>1</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>2</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>3</OPTION>"
"<OPTION>4</OPTION>"
"</SELECT>
</td>
</td>
</tr>
<input type=submit value='Add to Cart'> </td>
</TABLE>
</FORM>
