Hi all,
Listen I am looking to build a form, that sends info to a database, but the info being sent is going to be an amount, I am wondering if there is a script out there that will add up amounts and total it, to be sent would be the total price plus personal information.
can this be done?

Of course it can be done. As your post implies, a form usually submits information to a script, the script does the math and any other required processing, then adds the results to a database.

That implies that the script would need to be tailored to the calculations you need to perform and the database you use. It's impossible to suggest a specific script until those things are defined.

It's possible that a simple shopping cart system could be easily tailored to meet your needs I suppose.
