I've been trying to think this through and figure out if it is possible or not. I'm using zen-cart as shopping cart software, but what I'd like to do, is hard code a page that is basically a list of 7-9 products, next to each product is a checkbox, so I'd like to figure out a way, via html,javascript or jquery to submit whichever forms(products) are checked to the cart. The typical form submission for a product looks something like this(sometimes there may be one or two additional hidden fields):
<form name="cart_quantity" action="index.php?action=add_product" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="cart_quantity" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="products_id" value="7">
<input type="hidden" name="id[6]" value="9" id="attrib-6-9">
<input type="image" src="buy_button.png" alt="Add to Cart" title="Instructional Video Part 1: Add to Cart">
</form>
There would be 7-9 of these on the page, each with a checkbox, so I'm assuming a script would need to figure out which ones where checked and submit them via the form action? Maybe there is a better way of going about this that I'm not thinking of because a)it's over my head or b)just haven't figured it out yet. Anyway is something like this possible?
