Hi everyone. Im building a tickets website at www.findutickets.com and need to gather extra information regarding the requirements of each customer in the product description. Ive placed an example at http://findutickets.com/ticket_shop/produc...products_id=141 the only problem is when i click the submit button it trys to add the product to my cart instead of calling and running the script to submit the form. Any ideas how to make this work? Cheers.

sure, and you'll like how easy it is.

Rigth now, the form for the add to cart is started at the very top of the body part of your page. shift the form start down to the tr tag where the button lines begin.

This is due to nested forms, they will not work ... so you have to detangle the forms so they come after each other.

find this and remove it from where it is now

CODE

<?php echo tep_draw_form('cart_quantity', tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, tep_get_all_get_params(array('action')) . 'action=add_product')); ?>

copy it to the spot right after the products_description is displayed in product_info.php
