Question

First , go here: http://webapps.bcit.ca/A00839579/MDIA3207/Assign4/cart.html

Basically, I would like when someone updates the quantity of an item it’ll update the “Sub-total” in the bottom right. Shouldn’t be too hard, but for some reason I can’t figure it out. And on a side note, if can figure out how I can keep the prices with decimals when the quantity gets updated, that’d be great too. Thanks so much!

Here’s my JavaScript:

var artprice = 28.99;
var artquantity = document.getElementById("artquantity").value;
var arttotal = (artprice * artquantity).toFixed(2) - 0;

var loverprice = 19.95;
var loverquantity = document.getElementById("loverquantity").value;
var lovertotal = (loverprice * loverquantity).toFixed(2) - 0;

var nightprice = 32.00;
var nightquantity = document.getElementById("nightquantity").value;
var nighttotal = (nightprice * nightquantity).toFixed(2) - 0;


function artupdate() {
var subtotal = arttotal + lovertotal + nighttotal;

var artprice = 28.99;
var artquantity = document.getElementById("artquantity").value;
var arttotal = (artprice * artquantity).toFixed(2) - 0;

document.getElementById("artprice").innerHTML = "$" + arttotal;
document.getElementById("subtotal").innerHTML = "$" + subtotal;
}

function loverupdate() {
var subtotal = arttotal + lovertotal + nighttotal;

var loverprice = 19.95;
var loverquantity = document.getElementById("loverquantity").value;
var lovertotal = (loverprice * loverquantity).toFixed(2) - 0;

document.getElementById("loverprice").innerHTML = "$" + lovertotal;
document.getElementById("subtotal").innerHTML = "$" + subtotal;
}

function nightupdate() {
var subtotal = arttotal + lovertotal + nighttotal;

var nightprice = 32.00;
var nightquantity = document.getElementById("nightquantity").value;
var nighttotal = (nightprice * nightquantity).toFixed(2) - 0;

document.getElementById("nightprice").innerHTML = "$" + nighttotal;
document.getElementById("subtotal").innerHTML = subtotal;
}

var subtotal = arttotal + lovertotal + nighttotal;
document.getElementById("subtotal").innerHTML = "$" + subtotal;

function isNumberKey(evt)
{
var charCode = (evt.which) ? evt.which : event.keyCode
if (charCode > 31 && (charCode < 48 || charCode > 57))
return false;

return true;
}

Here is a complete solution DEMO

Please tell me the tax so I can add that to the script

Note the changes to the html and to the script.

to add new books, follow the structure you have now.

<div id="content">
    <table border="1">
        <tr>
            <th>Book Cover</th>
            <th>Title & Author</th>
            <th>Price</th>
            <th>Quantity</th>
        </tr>
        <tr>

JavaScript – replaces two of your js files:

var popimage = 1;
function openNewWindow(href, width, height) {
   // The popup name will be popup1, popup2, popup3, …. etc.   
   // Notice how we've concatenated the 'width' and 'height' parameters.
   var w = window.open(href, "popup"+popimage,
   "width=" + width + ",height=" + height +
   ",top=10,left=10,screenX=10,screenY=10,resizable=1,scrollbars=1,menubar=0");
   popimage++;
    return w?false:true;
}

var books = {}
window.onload=function() {
  var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
  for (var i=0;i<inputs.length;i++) {
    if (inputs[i].type=="text" && inputs[i].id.indexOf('quantity')!=-1) {
      var name = inputs[i].id.replace('quantity','');
      books[name] = parseFloat(document.getElementById(name+'price').innerHTML.replace('$',''))
      inputs[i].onkeyup=function() {
        var total = 0;
        for (var book in books) {
          var q = document.getElementById(book+"quantity").value;
          total += (isNaN(q) || q=="")?0:parseInt(q)*books[book]
        }
        document.getElementById('subtotal').innerHTML="Sub-total: $"+total.toFixed(2);      
        document.getElementById('taxes').innerHTML="Taxes: $"+(total*.06).toFixed(2);      
        document.getElementById('grandtotal').innerHTML="Grand-total: $"+(total*1.06).toFixed(2);      
      }  
    }
  }
}
