Calculate with Values

Hi there,

I have a question about calculating with values.

I have the number of things someone want to order and I know that one of those things costs 4 $. How can I calculate the overall price to show it on the thanks page?

I tried to use a custom code element with this code:

<?php
$rechnungsbetrag = 0;
$rechnungsbetrag = {anzahl_buecher} + {anzahl_usb};
?>

<input type="hidden" id="rechnungsbetrag " name="rechnungsbetrag " title="rechnungsbetrag " value="<?php echo $rechnungsbetrag; ?>" />

But then my form is not shown at all...😟

Can you help me please?

Regards
Steffen

Hi Bob,

thank you very much! You solved my problem!

Steffen

hi iam having a similar problem testing
<?php
$form->data['message'] = $form->data['Kmat'] + $form->data['lgBx'];
echo $message;
?>

and in email template
{message} only returns a 0

any help will be greatly appreciated

it should be

echo $form->data['message'];

in your case!

Where do you add this code ? you should have it inside a "custom code" action BEFORE the "Email" action!

yes it is in custom code, testing now, thanks

hi , so i replace strings on all variables to include the form data array, there is only one portion of the code being ignored, is there something i may do to covert this php to be compatible with cfv5? thanks in advance

here is the code being ignored

$total_pstairs = 0;

    $total_pstairs = 0;

    if($pickupstairs == '3' || $pickupstairs == '4' || $pickupstairs == '5' || $pickupstairs == '6' || $pickupstairs == '6+'){
        if($pickupstairs=='6+'){
            $pstairs = 5;
        }else{
            $pstairs = $pickupstairs-2;
        }

        $total_pstairs = ($total * 10)/100;
        $total_pstairs = $total_pstairs * $pstairs;
        
    }

    if($dropoffstairs == '3' || $dropoffstairs == '4' || $dropoffstairs == '5' || $dropoffstairs == '6' || $dropoffstairs == '6+'){
        if($dropoffstairs=='6+'){
            $dstairs = 5;
        }else{
            $dstairs = $dropoffstairs-2;
        }

        $total_dstairs = ($total * 10)/100;
        $total_dstairs = $total_dstairs * $dstairs;
       
    }

    $total_stairs = $total_pstairs + $total_dstairs;

    $total_quote = $total + $total_pstairs + $total_dstairs;

sorry the issue is not in code i found that on these dropdown fields I am unable to use
elevator=Elevator
groundFloor=Ground Floor
1=1 Flight of Stairs
2=2 Flights of Stairs
3=3 Flights of Stairs
4=4 Flights of Stairs
5=5 Flights of Stairs
6=6 Flights of Stairs
6+=more than 6 Flights

and so i used

elevator=Elevator
groundFloor=Ground Floor
(1)=1 Flight of Stairs
(2)=2 Flights of Stairs
(3)=3 Flights of Stairs
(4)=4 Flights of Stairs
(5)=5 Flights of Stairs
(6)=6 Flights of Stairs
(6+)=more than 6 Flights

otherwise my server will crash?

Solved by email!

Max
