About Shopping Cart source code
This advanced shopping cart application was developed using PHP and MySQL Database. The database and sample product data are automatically created upon running or installing the source code. Shopping carts are stored using the PHP Session. Users can simply click the "Add to Cart" button and the selected product item will be listed on the cart list in session. When the product is already on the list, the item on the cart quantity will be updated. On the shopping cart list page, customers can manage the items (update quantity and remove items).
Here's The Sample Snippet used on this Shopping Cart Source Code
- <?php
- /// print_r($_POST['product_id']);
- $_SESSION['cart'][$_POST['product_id']] += 1;
- }else{
- // Create new session variable
- $_SESSION['cart'][$_POST['product_id']] = 1;
- // print_r($_SESSION['cart']);
- }
- }else{
- // Create new session variable
- $_SESSION['cart'][$_POST['product_id']] = 1;
- // print_r($_SESSION['cart']);
- }
- }
- ?>
The above snippet is the script used for saving or storing the product using PHP Session upon clicking the "Add to Cart" button.
- <?php
- echo "<script>alert('Product has been Removed from Shopping Cart')</script>";
- echo "<script>window.location = 'cart.php'</script>";
- }
- $pid = $_GET['pid'];
- $operation = $_GET['operation'];
- if($operation == "add"){
- $_SESSION['cart'][$pid] += 1;
- }else{
- if($_SESSION['cart'][$pid] > 1)
