Cart Library - possible problems

@audiopleb

Should you not typecast this $this->uri->segment(3)?

Yes that's a good idea because in my case I am expecting an integer. I am in my infancy with the using a shopping cart, but as I mention previously the timing is great because I have two projects that require it. That being said, I am sure there are some checks and balances that need to be in place for the final workable code.

@xwero

Code:

make a ubiquity command for it

I'd never heard of this :coolgrin: more research sigh! Looks cool though.

@rick ellis

Sorry about the incorrect information

Hey that's cool, thanks for CodeIgniter
More importantly though have you addressed the incorrect cart total?

I pointed it out here with a possible solution

ubiquity is a ff add-on that allows you to create commands for sites in an natural language manner. So if a developer create a shoppingbasket command that supports several sites you can write for example : delete item 3 from my basket. This way you have a common interface to handle shopping baskets. But i think it's still to early to have such a natural language command, now it is more something like basket-delete item 3.

It's a minor point but the code for a typical view file, as shown in the User Guide cart.html (Subversion download), has two uses of the colon ( which causes the php code to trigger an error notice.

Lines 23 and 26 of the example code have this problem.

Code:

23 <?php if ($this->cart->has_options($items['rowid']) == TRUE): ?>

26 <?php foreach ($this->cart->product_options($items['rowid']) as $option_name => $option_value): ?>

fyi

OK this is totally driving me nuts right now.

I don't seem to be able to put more than 9 items in the cart. (except sometimes!!!)

I don't know if it's the cart or me!!

aaahhh!

Gotta leave it alone now

Anyone else with this problem?

Problem solved, and now that I know what the problem was I feel like an idiot.

RTFM !!

The problem was that the cart was being stored in a cookie instead of the database. I thought this was happening but nope! That's why sometimes, I could get eleven items in there and sometimes only eight or nine (different product names etc.)

So be warned, the cart appears to be working fine on cookie data alone.

:red: Oh the shame!
