  1. Wow what a quick fix! Thanks so much daddytiger for sharing your find. So grateful--it's hard to find words to express how much!
     
    For me, the second method you have mentioned was all I needed to rectify the problem: 
     

     

    $price = htmlentities($price); //important part

    $price = str_replace(array('$ ', ','), '', $price); //remove $ and comma
     

     

    And now my subtotal works perfectly!
     
    I can't thank you enough. You have made my day! Cheers.
  2. Hi Larry, 

    I was not exactly sure how to go about echoing back the unformatted base price and subtotal. Instead, I have made sure everything was coded exactly as it is presented in your book. But no success with my ongoing issue.

     

    So I have decided to recreate the Coffee Website using the books downloadable files, along with creating the database ecommerce2 (on my local server using xammp).

    I then ran the Coffee Site seeing it in action. It works beautifully. 

     

    Out of curiosity I then checked to see if the Coffee Site might possibly have the same issue I'm experiencing with my project. To check, I changed the price of an item in the non_products_category 

    (to over a thousand dollars) and also in the sales category(one thousand dollars). 

    To my surprise the Coffee Site is experiencing the same problem. 

     

    I now wonder if there could be an undetected error or glitch in your program for the Coffee Site? Could you check into this? Thank you so much in advance.

     

    The Coffee Site:

    Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again.

  3. Hello Larry, This is a really goooooood book! I'm still a bit green in PHP, but working through your book, php is starting to click. 

    My error must be somewhere in my code but I can't seem to figure it out. I've tried everything I could possibly think of including loading and reloading all the code, but still no answers. 

    I've tried reformatting the number_format function to: number_format($subtotal, 2, '.',' '), FORMAT(sc.price/100, 2, '.', ' ') and many other variations with all the number_format functions, but obviously I don't know what I am doing. 

     

    So, I have decided to go ahead and add the wishlist.html, wishlist.php, and add the delimiter procedures into the database to see if I could maybe get some answers. I did get something. I got an error message saying: 

     

    wishlist.php

     

     

    [0] => Array

     

            (

     

                [function] => my_error_handler

                    (

     

                        [0] => 8

     

                        [1] => A non well formed numeric value encountered

     

                        [2] => C:\xampp\htdocs\arlene\views\wishlist.html

     

                        [3] => 22

     

                        [4] => Array 

     

    .

    .

    .

    [row] => Array

     

                                    (

     

                                        [sku] => C1

     

                                        [quantity] => 1

     

                                        [category] => Landscape Paintings

     

                                        [name] => 30X40 - oils - original - exibition canvas

     

                                        [price] => 150000

     

                                        [stock] => 1

     

                                        [sale_price] => 100000

     

                                    )

     

     

     

                                [price] => 1,000.00

     

                                [subtotal] => 1

     

                            )

     

     

     

                    )

     

     

     

            )

    .

    .

    .

     

     

     

    And further down, I got another error message:

     

    .

    .

    .

     

    [error] => Commands out of sync; you can't run this command now

     

                [error_list] => Array

     

                    (

     

                        [0] => Array

     

                            (

     

                                [errno] => 2014

     

                                [sqlstate] => HY000

     

                                [error] => Commands out of sync; you can't run this command now

     

                            )

    .

    .

    .

     

     

    My project I'm trying to build is actually an artist website, that is why I want to be able to list prices at $1000.00 dollars and up.

    Any help would greatly be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

  4. Hello,
    I want to be able to list an item for at least $1000.00 dollars. But, in the subtotal column, the decimal point
    is not displayed in the correct place. 
    For example:
     

     Your Shopping Cart
      
    I am able to start out with the decimal point in the hundreds column. I then add a lot of quantities and update. Everything works just fine; the subtotal is correctly updated.   
     
                           ITEM                                      QTY          PRICE          SUBTOTAL           OPTIONS
     
    cappuccino machine :: 4 cup capacity             9            $150.00          $1350.00        Move to Wish List
                                                                                                                                        Remove from Cart
     
    Your Shopping Cart
     
    But, when I start out with a decimal point in the thousands column. The subtotal seems to not grab the correct dollar amount. Instead it displays the decimal point in the ones column. How do I fix this?

     

                           ITEM                                      QTY             PRICE        SUBTOTAL          OPTIONS
