Hi. I hope I have come to the right place to get this figured out. I must admit, I'm probably expecting way too much out of this form, but I would love it if it would all work how I'm wanting it too. I'm a portrait photographer and I'm creating an order form for ordering prints. Ideally, I would like them to be able to select a certain package and for it to input in the form the correct sizes for the package and of course when they want to order a la carte items, I'd like for it to let them select the size of the photo and then the correct unit price comes up. I'm pretty sure I can figure simple things like getting the total to come up by telling it to multiply quantity by unit price, but all the other stuff I'm pretty stuck on. If anyone is willing to help, I'd be happy to send over the file or any other info. you may need. Thanks, Kristen

Can you describe in detail exactly what you want to happen when a particular package is chosen? What things vary between packages?

Basically it's just the sizes of the prints that are different and the amount of them. For example, the Just the basics package has 7 - 5x7's, 6 - 8x10's and 1 - 11x14. But I would want them to be able to choose a different image for each print, so it would need to fill out the form with 7, 5x7's etc and then I'd still like them to be able to choose a la carte items. Anyway, for the packages, I'd also like it to fill out just the price for the package instead of doing the unit price times quantity, since those packages have been discounted for buying that many items. Does that make sense?
By the way, I'm open to creating more than one form if need be, since I think I will need to do this anyway to get album orders and other products ordered with ease.

You can do that, but I think it might make sense to modify the form so that it's in two sections. The first section would allow the user to select a package, and then the details would automatically fill-in the individual line items below. The second section would be for specifying "a la carte" items.

Ok, cool, so from what you can tell, I haven't messed up the system any by mistake, so far, right?

No, the form looks nice. Post again if you run into any trouble or have more questions.
