Well its a project I am trying to get to work, running from this tutorial: Ajax Workshop 3: Shopping Cart using Script.aculo.us I am trying to construct a ‘Wedding Quote Calculator‘ The drag and drop is the easy part, but I need to assign real values to the ‘boxes’ and dynamically add up everything in the DIV and pull though in the total box. I am stuck. Its not hard as I am not a programmer! I was wondering if I could store the values in a php file, add whatever is placed in the shopping cart then spit out the value. I don’t want to resort to mySQL as the data will be fixed.I am also going to construct a drop down and radio button version as I doubt I will get it working too soon and it needs to be done for 2008 and 2009 weddings which are booking now!
Opening this one up for discussion sorry!

An easy way to do this is to hard-code your wedding items as a JSON
object.
You could then grab the details from the JSON object based on the ID
of the cart item.

I got help from a google group!
