Sorry couldn't think of a better subject for this email :(
This has stumped 7 people so far. I'm not an expert with php, but any help would be great.
I have the following
$Quantity1
$Quantity2
$Quantity3
and
$Price1
$Price2
$Price3
These variables will eventually make a "chart"/database with the following headings
q1 q2 q3 q5 q10 q15 q20 q25 q50 q100 q300 q500 q600 q1000000000
the number represents the number of quantity
so $Quantity1 uses $Price1 's value
so if $Quantity1 is 10
and $Price1 is $1.00
that means each "unit" is .10
so the output would be
q1 q2 q3 q5 q10 q15 q20 q25 q50 q100 q300 q500 q600 q1000000000
0 0 0 0 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10
Now the tricky part is $Quantity2 can either be blank or have a value
and if $Quantity2 has a value then $Quantity3 can either be blank or have a value
SO If $Quantity2 is 500
and $Price2 is $40.00
the output would now be
q1 q2 q3 q5 q10 q15 q20 q25 q50 q100 q300 q500 q600 q1000000000
0 0 0 0 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .10 .08 .08 .08
I think and hope you get the picture.
Things we know If there is no value for $Quantity2 then there will be no $Quantity3
and of course if either or both of those quantities are empty there will be no price.
And of course if there is a value for either of those quantities, there will be a price.
So what method would be best for doing this? Any functions that may come in handy?
