Adding Items To Cart - Outside of Cubecart.

[Guest]

I want to be able to add items to my shopping cart outside of cubecart actually on my website using AJAX.

I've tried posting to the cart page using jQuery $.post() like so:

$j.post("/cubecart/index.php?act=viewProd", { add: productID, quan: 1});

It appears to post and it gets the resulting page, but doesn't actually add it to the cart. Are there other variables I must pass to the page in order to get a product successfully added to the cart, or do I need to create a new posting page entirely?

Cheers :pirate:

I too want to know how to do this, just by using straight html though?

There is a remote buy mod at cubecartforums.org that should do this for you. Not sure thru ajax (I have no idea what ajax is truthfully), but the mod should do the trick.

I've done this simply by adding a FORM to my outside pages which add a product to the cart.

You can see an example at http://www.KeysToPower.com. View Source, and scroll to the bottom. Or just search for "<form", which will take you straight there. As you'll see, I even include options.

Although I'm currently using CC4, the only thing different from the CC3 version is the URL. Also, in CC3, I installed a mod which took the customer directly to the View Cart page after placing an item in the cart, and that worked perfectly with the outside HTML FORM.
