Fields that calculate?

    I have found a work around for all my issues except for one with this product. I am going to have a form list apparel and you can choose quantities. I need a way that each item has a price and that when a quantity is put int it multplies the price by the quantity and displays it as it grows.

    ie. I choose 2 in quantity of Item 1 and it costs $10. In another set location it lists current amount used: $20. I then click 3 in quantity of another item and it costs $5. The amount used now changes to $35.

    Is this possible? Would it be very hard? If this is not possible instead of displaying the amount used can the form upon submit add up these amounts and if it exceeds X amount it gives an error saying, "AMount exceeds price allotted"?

    Thanks again

    Sorry, this feature is not available either.

    You could add your own code, since MachForm provided with PHP source code. However, I'm not sure regarding the difficulty, since it's pretty much depends on your form complexity.

    Thanks. I think I might try it that way. Get the form all working thru the script and then add java to do just this aspect.

    designoptimize: this was also one of my pre-purchase questions. Please post if you are able to get a js working.

    I would also like the ability to calculate fields. Please add this to the user Wishlist for updates.
