The reason a -unique ID is created is so that identical products with different options can be managed by the cart.</p> - -<p>For example, let's say someone buys two identical t-shirts (same product ID), but in different sizes. The product ID (and other attributes) will be -identical for both sizes because it's the same shirt. The only difference will be the size. The cart must therefore have a means of identifying this -difference so that the two sizes of shirts can be managed independently. It does so by creating a unique "row ID" based on the product ID and any options associated with it.</p> - -<p>In nearly all cases, updating the cart will be something the user does via the "view cart" page, so as a developer, it is unlikely that you will ever have to concern yourself -with the "row ID", other then making sure your "view cart" page contains this information in a hidden form field, and making sure it gets passed to the update -function when the update form is submitted. Please examine the construction of the "view cart" page above for more information.</p> - - - -<p> <br /></p> - - -<h1>Function Reference</h1> - -<h2>$this->cart->insert();</h2> - -<p>Permits you to add items to the shopping cart, as outlined above.</p> - - -<h2>$this->cart->update();</h2> - -<p>Permits you to update items in the shopping cart, as outlined above.</p> - - -<h2>$this->cart->total();</h2> - -<p>Displays the total amount in the cart.</p> - - -<h2>$this->cart->total_items();</h2> - -<p>Displays the total number of items in the cart.</p> - - -<h2>$this->cart->contents();</h2> - -<p>Returns an array containing everything in the cart.</p> - - - -<h2>$this->cart->has_options(rowid);</h2> - -<p>Returns TRUE (boolean) if a particular row in the cart contains options.
