texte = You guys are so prompt with your responses!Many of you responded, referring me to read up on TextA - TextE... ofcourse, this is the way to pass the color information on to the cart andordering sections of the script, right? I think I understand that part.The question is: can I provide drop down menus or other user-friendlyways for the shoppers to choose their color? The problem is that each ofmy 200+ items has different color values, so I can't easily just do onedatabase to contain the colors. I thought of actually writing the HTMLfor the drop-down menu into a database field, but I am working on thisfor a person that has little computer skills and doesn't want to have todo that every time he adds a new item.
