custom payment

[redtoad]

okay, here is what I have so far...

<< function process_button() {

global $_SERVER, $order;



$sequence = rand(1, 1000);

$process_button_string = zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Login', MODULE_PAYMENT_WTF_LOGIN) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Card_Num', $this->cc_card_number) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Exp_Date', $this->cc_expiry_month . substr($this->cc_expiry_year, -2)) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Amount', number_format($order->info['total'], 2)) .


// zen_draw_hidden_field('x_currency_code', $_SESSION['currency']) .




zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Cust_ID', $_SESSION['customer_id']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_first_name', $order->billing['firstname']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_last_name', $order->billing['lastname']) .>>


and so on. then we have:


<< return $process_button_string;>>

okay, so I should be able to write in something like....


zen_draw_hidden_field('x_name', $order->products['name']) .
zen_draw_hidden_field('x_model', $order->products['model']) .

to get all of my happy product names/model numbers.

except that I need a loop to get all of the products and this product array in order.php has an index number and i'm now trying to figure out the syntax I need to pull that data.

beautiful. lovely. gorgeous.

(sotto voce muttering)

<officeSpaceBoss> um... yeah </officeSpaceBoss>

[redtoad]

if anyone could help me with the syntax i would greatly appreciate it. If I've been unclear, let me know.

[redtoad]

never mind, I figured it out, was flipping back and forth between pages and got confused, this is just a loop. I get it.

sorry, my head is gonna explode.

okay, here is my issue.

apparently the cart writes this prod info to the db after I run my form handler. but it clears the session before I run my form handler.

so I have to write this prod info to the process button string. okay. fine.

so the product info is in an array and has a loop.

this is where my novice php is killing me.

how the heck to I make a loop that pulls the data from the cart session and writes it to a hidden form field?

I've got:

$counter=0;
$products = $_SESSION['cart']->get_products();

for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($products); $i<$n; $i++){

$this->products[$counter] = array('qty' => $products[$i]['quantity'],


'name' => $products[$i]['name'],

'model' => $products[$i]['model'],

'tax' => zen_get_tax_rate($products[$i]['tax_class_id'], $tax_address->fields['entry_country_id'], $tax_address->fields['entry_zone_id']));


$prodname = $this->products[$i]['name'];
$prodqty = $this->products[$i]['qty'];
$prodmodel = $this->products[$i]['model'];
//this is where the $prodname, $prodqty, and $prodmodels should be assigned to go into the process button string ?????? HELP???????

$counter++;

}


$process_button_string = zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Login', MODULE_PAYMENT_WTF_LOGIN) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Card_Num', $this->cc_card_number) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Exp_Date', $this->cc_expiry_month . substr($this->cc_expiry_year, -2)) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Amount', number_format($order->info['total'], 2)) .


// zen_draw_hidden_field('x_currency_code', $_SESSION['currency']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Cust_ID', $_SESSION['customer_id']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_first_name', $order->billing['firstname']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_last_name', $order->billing['lastname']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_address', $order->billing['street_address']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_city', $order->billing['city']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_state', $order->billing['state']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_zip', $order->billing['postcode']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_country', $order->billing['country']['title']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_phone', $order->customer['telephone']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_email', $order->customer['email_address']) .
zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_first_name', $order->delivery['firstname']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_last_name', $order->delivery['lastname']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_address', $order->delivery['street_address']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_city', $order->delivery['city']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_state', $order->delivery['state']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_zip', $order->delivery['postcode']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_ship_to_country', $order->delivery['country']['title']) .

zen_draw_hidden_field('x_Customer_IP', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) .

$process_button_string .= zen_draw_hidden_field(zen_session_name(), zen_session_id());



return $process_button_string;

}

I'm posting my solution as a courtesy for anyone who struggles with similar issues ever.

what I ended up doing (and I know there is probably a better way to do it but hey... I've fought this long enough and arrays make me seasick) ...what I ended up doing was making a couple of loops to loop through the product array and then form one long string with the qty, model number and description that I loaded into ONE variable and then appended to my process button string. it works as I can tear the product string itself apart on the other end myself because I'm making a form handler. whee.

eta: oh and if you ever need the extra data, you can grab it by studying order.php in the classes folder. It has it ALL there.

cheers.
