Hi,
We are trying to combine our Magento checkout with a web form, and we would like to get the product name to pass into the form, is this possible ?
if yes, how?

I would look at JQuery to handle this. If you know the id of the element that contains the value you want to pass you should be able to load it into the form field.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Hi Eric,
I know the id of the element that contains the value i want to pass through.
the code snippet i was currently looking at looks like this:
<?php $productId=$this->getRequest()->getParams();
$model = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');
$_product = $model->load($productId["id"]);
echo $_product->getName(); ?>
But thats PHP, not Jquery... how can i use Jquery to load the value in my form field?

The code i posted before is how Magento can copy it into it's own contact form.
( which i don't want because i am using a coffeecup form. )
The value is in the database,
`..._catalog_product_flat_6` WHERE 'Name' is
'catalog_product_flat_6' is the database Table
'Name' is the field

Are you up to altering the form manually?

I forgot to ask what kind of field are you trying to fill in the form?

Hi eric,
The name of the product a.k.a the title of the item.
It doesn't really matter in what kind of field it is shown in the form as long as its visible.
A Plain Text field or a Title/Heading field would be recommended i guess so the client can't alter it.
If that isn't possible it could just aswell be a text field or Text Area or even a Magical HTML field.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
