Pinnacle Cart Programming Needed Urgently!

**Brian07002** · 06:38 PM

I forgot to mention that the . $row["title"] in the code below displays the "Alt text for each product" that was easy cause it was a row in the table.

Back to the message....

I need someone to help me out with the pinnacle cart regarding the (Smarty Template System)...

All I want to do is add this php code into one of the html files:

Code:

// PHP script
<?
// Connect to the database
mysql_connect ('localhost', 'username', 'pass') ;
mysql_select_db ('dbase'); 

// Edit this number to however many links you want displaying
$num_displayed = 1 ;

// Select random rows from the database
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT $num_displayed"); 

// For all the rows that you selected
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) 

{
// Display them to the screen...

echo "<a href=\"" . $row["link"] . "\">
<img src=\"" . $row["image_url"] . "\" border=1 alt=\"" . $row["title"] . "\">
</a>" ;
}
?>

I just can't figure out 2 stinking things for the life of me! If you look at the // Display them to the screen Section, (right above), I am trying to get the product attributes such as the link that goes with that particular image associated with .$row["image_url"] to display...Please note that the .$row["link"] is incorrect only because the database doesn't contain a row called "link"...My problem is figuring out what goes there...From my shopping cart templates I have something in the lines of:

Code:

<a href="{$index_url}">Go to home page</a>

I just can't figure out the way to make it change according to the .$row["image_url"] which is the random image being displayed.

If you know this "Smarty" "CRAPOLA" leave a tip or two, or three...Or whatever.

Thanks alot!
