Any help would be lovely thanks. You can do all that with the AJAX now built in in Coldfusion. However, what you ask is too much to be done at once. You should start with one block of functionality at a time. For example, start with the tags cfform, cfselect and cfcomponent. The component will contain data and functionality about products, prices, and so on. Use onClick and onChange events, together with the bind attribute of cfinput and cfselect tags, to dynamically change the values. There are examples in the livedocs on binding in cfinput and binding in cfselect.

I don't think I'm ready for javascripting just yet, I've only been at html/css/cfml for a few months at the rate of a few hours a day.

I think I'm on the right track looking at binding and cfc's for what I want to do I'll keep at it.

I've got to say you guys are ledgens!!!

Thx a mill once again guys, your input has been very helpfull indeed

Thx guys,

     And what I really ment was err, well I guess the submit button would be renamed as "checkout", but anyway thanks a mill for the pointers BKBK.

I can see I got plenty plenty to do if I wanna get this done so I'll get on it
