Form Help Please

[MissNightAngel]

I am trying to creat an order form that is submitted via email and i am having trouble on one section. Does any one know how to make it so that when a person enters a qty and presses the add button, the subtotal box will show the total qty*price amount? I have done this in a Flash program but I don't want to use flash for this form. The form I have is as follows:

<FORM>
<table border=1 cellpadding=1 cellspacing=0 width="65%" align=center valign=middle>
<TR BGCOLOR="#666666"><td width="100%" align=center valign=middle>&nbsp;ITEMS:</td></tr>
<TR><TD align=center valign=middle>
Style 1 -- 35 Cigars<br>
Qty<input type=text size=4 name=cigarbox1qty value="">
&nbsp; &nbsp;Color:
<select name=35color multiple=5 size=1>
<option value="Black">Black
<option value="Blue">Blue
<option value="Brown">Brown
<option value="Red">Red
<option value="Green">Green
</select>
&nbsp; &nbsp; <input type=button name=add value=Add STYLE="background:FFCC99">
<TR><TD align=center valign=middle>
Style 2 -- 50 Cigars<br>

To manipulate the fields like that, you will want to use some kind of client-side scripting. I recommend Javascript. It is fairly easy to use especially if you have ever programmed C++ or Java.

To tie it with the add button you will use an event called onClick to call a function in your Javascript.

Here are some good tutorials:
