Honeymoon Registry using ASP
I'm trying to create a honeymoon registry for a travel client of mine and I'm confused on how to do it.
Here's how I would like it to work:
I would have the list of items on the page with a checkbox next to each one for purchase. When that box is checked it would update the "purchased" field in the database and also be submitted in the form. When one of the items is purchased I want it to say "Purchased" so the next person knows it's not available.
The item would be submitted to the travel company with Credit card information, it would not be processed on the site.
Now, here's what I have thought out:
I had thought about just setting up a shopping cart but since they don't want the usual "checkout" I figured I would scrap that idea.
Instead, I would have to do it from scratch. I would create a database with three fields: item, price and purchased (yes or no)
I define my database and create a recordset. I insert the fields from the bindings tab. I create a checkbox for the purchased item.
I installed the Advanced Conditional Region extension to get the items to show as "purchased".
Now, I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly. Do I need to do the recordset and bindings? If I repeated the region and had all of the items listed, how would the checkbox work for each item?
It seems like it would be so simple but I can't seem to wrap my brain around it!
TIA!
