Topic: Video tutorials Shopping Cart with XML.

I want to thank you the killerPHP  team for the wonderful videos. I have a question reagrding the shopping cart with XML tutorial. (Maybe someone else asked it before). What if we want to add products that have to different sizes and therefore 2 different prices? How can we do that??

Any help will be greatly appriciated.


Thanks
Tony

Re: Video tutorials Shopping Cart with XML.

I think doing something like that would require some significant modifications to the way products are handled. You would probably need to implement some sort of parent/child relationship between products, so that your different sizes would show up underneath the main product, and so that both products could be added separately to the shopping cart.

Re: Video tutorials Shopping Cart with XML.

Ok, i understand that,
but therefore you how can we pass that specific price (as it's going to be to different prices assuming)

<shop>
<item>1</item>
<pricesmall>1.00</pricesmall>
<pricelarge>2.00</pricelarge>
<shop>

Can we create a function so that the $finalprice (let's assume)

$finalprice = $pricesmall || $pricelarge


Sorry if i don't make sense. New to PHP

Thanks in advance

Tony
