Sorry, the first mail in this subject run out for me. This is an updated one. I am almost ready with my learning project in PHP/MySQL. I can register new product in stock. Add and increase the number and weight. I can move products between different storehouses I can also transfer products from store and onto a "truck document" but that's it and here I need some advice. I like to register new products and the amount in number (for example 4) and weight in kg. I like to write it in this way: Dynamite - package 4 - Weight 200 kg Lunt - Package 10 - Weight 10kg Then I like to 4+10 = 14 and 200+10 = 210. It shall looks like this: ==============================**======== Dynamite | 4 | 200

Lunt         | 10 |  10

------------------------------**------------------------------**------

TOTAL    | 14 | 210

It is easy to register this product by product on their own row. but in what way can I multiply them? ned products be stored in arrays? I think it will be similar to shopping cart in online store but i have no clue about how to do this. If you have links to pages were i can learn am i Happy for it. If you can help me here is even better. Thanks for your time and effort to learn me programming. Karl Ahhh.....

So - you should run a query that selects the products and information that you want. Then you start by creating an html table header and then loop through your query results and echo a table row for each result row. // start the table echo "<table border=1>"; echo "<tr><th>Product</th><th>**Amount</th></tr>"; // loop thru each item found while ($results = $qrslts->fetch(PDO::FETCH_**ASSOC)) {

    echo "<tr><td>".$results['product_**name']."</td><td>".$results['**

product_amt']."</td></tr>"; } // finish the table html echo "</table";

Yes that part is OK. I do have problem to add total weight and package at bottom of the table like this: Product_one 40kg Product_two 60kg -------------------------

Total:             100kg

=============== Because sometimes it is only a few products and other times many products. I then need to summing them at bottom. One timer only 3 rows, other times 20 rows. The program need a way to add every singel product and see if it's a few or many, Karl So - as you loop thru the results, accumulate your totals and then at the end before you close the table generate one last row with those amounts in it. Simple!
