ASP VB6 - Form Refresh

[Polly_Anna_22]

Hi,
I have a form which consists of a list of items together with order qty, individual cost price, and total price for each item. The form will have a submit button so that when the user has finished his order I re-direct them to my selling page.

However I do not know how I can update the total price for each item when the user inputs his order quantity for each item and before they submit their entire order.

I would be grateful for any help.

Many thanks,

Polly Anna

You don't really need to do that. You can store the price and quantity in
the database and then do the calculations in the database query. ie. You'd
do the calculations after the form is submitted, not before.

Hi Jules,
yes that is certainly an option. What if I wanted to do the calculation as soon as the user tabbed out of the text box, would I be looking at Javascript to do it? How would I know that the user had tabbed out of the text box?

I really do appreciate any help I receive.

Kind regards,

Yes, you can do all of this with Javascript. Have a look at
http://www.irt.org/script/form.htm#6
You should find some useful code there. You can find when the user has
tabbed out of a textbox by using onBlur.
