Download fly to basket script

Download files

You can download the script from this Zip file

Files included in the package:

fly-to-basket.html = Main HTML file for the demo
js/fly-to-basket.js = Javascript code for this script
js/ajax.js = Ajax (Library from http://twilightuniverse.com/projects/sack)
addProduct.php = Server side file which retreves productId from the script and adds it to the basket
images/* = Images for this demo

Configuration

This is the HTML for products on the page

<div id="slidingProduct1" class="sliding_product">
  <img src="images/product.gif">
  Calendar<br>
  50.00
</div>
<a href="#" onclick="addToBasket(1);return false;"><img src="images/basket.gif"></a>

There are two important things you have to notice here:

The id of the div have to be slidingProduct<product ID>, example: slidingProduct1 for the product with ID "1" in your database.
Call the function addToBasket(<product ID>) to add products to the basket. Example: addProduct(1) to add product with ID=1 to the basket

addProduct.php

This is a PHP file which is called by Ajax when a product is added to the basket(It's not required to use PHP. You can create it in ASP, JSP or other server side language). This file receives a variable named "productId". Then, this file should update the content of the shopping basket in a database. Finally, it outputs a string in the following format:

product ID|||Product description|||product price

I.e.: product ID, 3 pipes, product description, 3 pipes and finally the price of the product

removeProduct.php

This PHP file is used to remove products from the shopping basket. Input to this file is a GET variable named productIdToRemove. What you have to do inside this PHP file is to subtract one item of this product from the basket(i.e. in the Database). Then output the string "OK" if the update was executed successfully.

Javascript variables

At the top of the fly-to-basket.js file, you will find 3 variables which you can modify:

var flyingSpeed = 25;
var url_addProductToBasket = 'addProduct.php';
var txt_totalPrice = 'Total: ';

flyingSpeed is used to control how fast your products flies to the basket.
url_addProductToBasket is where you put the url to your server side files(i.e. addProduct.php).
txt_totalPrice is a text label shown at the bottom of the shopping basket in front of the total price.

showAjaxBasketContent function

Inside fly-to-basket.js you will find a function with the name showAjaxBasketContent. This function updates the text in the right column, i.e. the shopping cart. I have added some comments to code in this function in case you need to modify it.

Showing existing basket items

When someone navigates on your page, you have to write out the existing basket items from your database. The demo isn't connected to a database, so when you refresh the page, the basket at the right side will be empty. This is the HTML code for the shopping basket in the right column:

<table id="shopping_cart_items">
  <tr>
    <th>Items</th>
    <th>Description</th>
    <th>Price</th>
    <th></th>
  </tr>
  


</table>

If there's allready items in the basket, you have to add rows to this table, example:

<tr id="shoping_cart_items_product1">
  <td>1</td>
  <td>Calendar</td>
  <td>50.00</td>
  <td><a href="#" onclick="removeProductFromBasket(1);return false;"></td>
</tr>

Update log

Hi,

Nice Script.

How to convert it to complete Client side script without PHP?

Can XML file be loaded for product list with links to product images, descrition, rates etc ?

Can the product addition and deletion from the cart be done fully on client side ?

A sample code shall be appreciated.

wonderful script but without much use. Its a dumb doll. None is out there to help people to integrate with their shopping carts. DHTMLGoodies maintain glorious silence. Forums use jugllary of words but non tells how to integrate it with zencart,oscommerce, drupal,joomla etc etc.

If it doesn't really fly-to-basket it will surely fly-to-dustbin.
