RESOLVED! Booking Form Javascript Question

[suction cup]

Hi!

I'm looking to make a booking form similar to the one here:

http://www.cromwellcars.com/

The price returned is based on the input fields.

I haven't yet found a completed script for anything similar.

Any suggestions of how to proceed? (I'm pretty new to this kind of thing).

Many Thanks in advance.

Best Wishes

What would the user be booking for? And whats the numbers (eg. option a = 100$ * (people/2) + miles? )

Hey Nile,

Thanks for your reply.

The user would be choosing between:

1. Start Point (650+ options, all the various locations in the city)
2. Finish Point (650+ options again)
3. No. passengers (6 options)

OR

1. Trip Duration (10 options)
2. No. passengers (6 options)

Now, I really don't know how this sort of thing is usually approached in Javascript. So far, I haven't found any completed scripts to check out. A few ideas are as follows: (just mentioning the Start to Finish option here, as this is the more challenging...):

650 to the power 2 is a lot of options! Perhaps there could be various 'price bands' stored somewhere, e.g.:

BAND 1: £25

City to Airport
Centre to Railway Station
Market St to Picadilly

etc

BAND 2: £50

Railway to Airport

etc etc etc

And then the choice would be referenced to whichever 'band' it is in.

Passenger choice could apply a calculation to the result of that stage, e.g.

1 passenger apply *1.5
2 passengers apply *1.7

etc...

I'd be interested to know how you would approach all this...

Best Wishes
