Select items and write a txt file

[bettina]

I don't if that's possible... that's why I ask.
In my homepage www.coaster.ch I show photos from beercoasters with
their respective codes.
At present, those who want to exchange with me, have to write the codes
in a mail. I want to make it possible that other collectors can select
the coasters (by clicking on it, for example) and something like a txt
file with the codes of the selected coasters will be generated and then
sent to me... as attachment to a form, for example... I don't know..
perhaps I'm quite wrong... perhaps there is an easiest way... any
advice and idea will be welcomed.
Thanks. Bettina

you need a botton next to each item that emails you, it is possible to have
the code set up as the email subject.

But that means that for each seleted item I would have a mail?

is that not what you want.

In that case you need a form and when they click on the item the form is
completed for them, when they have finshed selecting they can send. A bit
like how a shopping baskets works.

I've thought that with a form would be possible, but is there a way to
do that the coaster will be selected just by clicking on it? I mean, I
cannot use a check-box or something like that? You see, I show the
coasters on after the other without cells, so I cannot put a button at
the bottom.. it would not be clear where the button belongs to because
some coasters are bigger thatn others. If I use cells the coasters will
be deformated. I want to use something like onclick("write code of the
coaster") . Is that possible?

yes that is what I am talking about, you click on the coatser, use
javascript to populate a hidden form and when the user is ready the form can
be sent. it is likely that the user will want to "see" the list of all
selected items before sending this to you, so it will need to work a bit
like a shopping basket. How is your javascript ?

[bettina]

My Javascript is not very good and really I am a beginner in PHP but
it's like learn by doing. That's why I asked.... because I had no
idea... Now I know more or less what I have to do. I thought about
something like that:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function write(x) {

//here I don't know how to assign the items that I click to my hidden
form

}
//-->

<form name="Formular" action="">
<img src="coaster.gi f" name="coaster_c ode"
onClick="write( Formular.name)" >

Do I have to put a button somewhere to say the user that can send the
form. I can imaging than then an Outlook window will be open with the
mail and the user can make corrections.... Am I too far away from
reality?
