I'm sure I can help you, but I'm not able to follow your terminology.
What's a "quantity chooser" and what's a "slider"? Are you referring to
select boxes? I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't understand what
you're referring to. I'm confident you can accomplish what you want using a
loop, but perhaps you can restate your question using different terminology
and some more details.
Sorry, I've been away from this for a while.
Let me peel back a bit.
When I generate the form, I pull up from the db, the quantity on hand, and the quantity already committed to orders. So:
$max=$quantity-$commit is the maximum number I can allow someone to order.
In the form, I'd like to get to a mechanism that would allow entry (by most any means really) of an order number >0 and less than $max.
I know I can do it by submitting the form, but it would be irritating to have to do that..
Maybe I should just display $max, and let it go at that.
