Adding multiple items to a cart at once

[Guest]

I'm creating some pages in which the user will select which products they
want to purchase. For example, someone would like to buy some lipstick and
there are 10 colors to choose from. I'd like to display a sample swatch of
each color with a text box next to it where they can type how many of each
color they want. Then, after making those selections, they would click "Add
to cart" to add all the lipstick colors/products at once. Each color has
it's own product code/cart info. Is this possible to do?

thanks!
Suzy

Yes
- but unless you are going to learn how to hand code server side scripting you would need a shopping cart addin
Check w/ your host what shopping carts / eCommerce they offer or search for FP compatible shopping cart addins

Not in Frontpage, no.

Have you tried a support group or bulletin board for the shopping cart thing
you're using?

There is a shopping cart add-in via the ISP - my friend that I'm doing the
site for basically sent me a url for every product - one for each color - so
that I'd have an "add to cart" button for each color. That looks messy and
takes up too much space so I didn't know if there were a way to assign that
url to each entry box next to each color swatch, and then when the person
hits "add to cart" all of the entries get submitted with those urls. I will
send my friend email and try to get more info on this add-in - I thought I
was good to go with those urls.
