The JavaScript.Pro Demo
Testing this Demo Out

Here are the expectations on how you should test JavaScript.Pro:

  1. Begin with the "Add Items" page by adding about 5 or more items to your shopping cart and include as many variations of products as you like.
  2. Go to the "Remove Items" page and take a few off your list.
  3. Go to the "Check-Out" page, and mess with the number of items you want. Watch how FAST the calculations are made!
  4. Type in your name & email address and submit your fake order: You will receive a Results page with the order (as a receipt), you will receive an email receipt, and you will be able to see the order you made, stored on the hard drive for the "owner." The owner will receive an email notification each time a new order has been made!
Starting Off!!!

The JavaScript.Pro demo works with three basic pages. Each one is specific in its function, and all three work together to become the shopping cart program that allows the end user an easy way to order products through the internet. If you have any questions regarding this program, please also checkout our FAQ Page in our "Support" section.

As you go through this demo, you can see how the background scripting works by turning on "Warn Me Before Accepting Cookies" in your browser preferences.

In Netscape, use EDIT --> PREFERENCES --> ADVANCED.
In Internet Explorer, use VIEW --> INTERNET OPTIONS.
Note: This cart does not work on version 3.x browsers, only 4.x or higher.

1. The "ADD ITEMS" Page     [ Click Here ]

The first page that is utilized to begin the ordering of items is the ADD ITEMS page. This page is the most crucial in setting up the order in the "background" as a user peruses a website and begins selecting items for a final order.

The important part about this page is that it must be customized to enable the user to select multiple options for an individual product, if necessary. These options could be sizes, colors, model #'s, and so on. The following page has several customized "ADD ITEM" forms to allow you to accommodate these options for users. You will be able to choose the form(s) that best fit your needs, and you can have as many "Add Items" pages on your site as you want. Just copy the main JavaScript code over to each page!

2. The "REMOVE ITEMS" Page    [ Click Here ]

The next important page you need is the REMOVE ITEMS page. In this page, the user has the ability to manage the removal of items from his or her cart. A simple checkbox is used for each removal selection, and a "Make Changes" button simply removes that item from the "cookie" that is used to keep track of items in the cart. You will not need to do any customization of this page except that you will need to insert the code into your customized page.

3. The "CHECKOUT" Page    [ Click Here ]

The page that makes it all happen is the CHECKOUT page. This is where the contents of the shopping cart are read by the browser to formulate the design of the web page, show the items ordered, and total up the final dollar amount.

What this page also does is check the number sequence for various credit cards and total up the sales tax amount for in-state deliveries. It is very flexible and fast because it does not need to reload the page in order to display the new totals. One of the secrets of this page is that a user changing the totals in any field will automatically default to the original calculation(s), which is a key part of providing the correct total in the billing amount!
