Re: Multiple MySQL Queries

I'd like to revisit this one last time. Below is the revised code I'm using, but I don't like having individual 'Add To Cart' buttons for each item. I've tried to find a way to have only one that resides outside the nested tables for all items, but without luck. It would need to send every item that has a quantity to the cart, but only those items. The URL that would be passed needs to look like this: /shop.cgi?c=viewcart.htm&itemid=P74S&i_P74S=80&S2448S&i_S2448S=100&AC&i_AC=26 (The above URL is sending 3 items and quantities to the cart; 80 - P74S, 100 - S2448S and 26 - AC.) Thanks again for all your help. I'm learning a lot on this list - albeit slowly! ;) Regards, Frank ------------------------ <?php $cats = array('02121-19222-13349-11451' => 'Stationary Posts','04103-99222-48340-11422' => 'Solid Galvanized Shelves'); echo '<table border="1"><tr>'; foreach ( $cats AS $cat => $title) { echo <<<START <td valign="top"> <table border="1">
