Hello there,
I would like to have a 'sort of thing' on my website which calculates prices for services using unit rate: i.e. they input no. of units (in my case words for translation) and that is calculated by the unit price and the full quote shown to them.
Thanks

:eek:

You can do this server-side or client-side. It would probably be easier client-side, using javascript. However, they have different uses. A Javascript implementaion would just put the price into a text box. For a printable quote that looks good, on a separate page, it would be much more convenient to use PHP, ASP, or Perl, though it's possible to use JavaScript for that.

Do you have a link to somewhere I could get some Java script for what you suggest? I'm a beginner as regards Java and usually adapt stuff from free Java sites. Many thanks...
