Passing parameters to contact_us.php

[sthelios]

Hi everyone

 

On my website i have a number of products where that people need to send a mail to ask the price. So instead of displaying the price i have a link:

 

{ echo " <a href='http://www.*****.be/contact_us.php'> " . TEXT_MAIL_FOR_THE_PRICE . " </a> "; }

 

Is it possible to send parameters to the contacT_us.php form, so that the question/enquiry field is automatically filled with the model number and for example "i want to know the price of " + product?

First you should'nt link like that, it could cause loss of session so cart etc, use tep_href_link http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/330479-what-is-the-oscsid-why-you-must-not-loose-it/

 

You could also pass the params you want with the tep_href_link function.

 

This post delt with a similar issue, but for search, you could mod around that, its only the param passing you need to change.

Optionally you could use the quotes contribution
