There have been numerous questions asked in the
forum about collecting auction information and payments. This is one way of doing it.
The form uses product[ ], the product is auction
number, and all information (Auction number (567) & Item won (Toy Boat) is appended to
the product on one line in the cart as shown.

Note: If you input values and submit the
form (below) to the cart, the shipping charge will not show up correctly due to the way I
have my cart set up for shipping. Set your shipping option up to reflect the actual amount
put into the shipping box. I am using option 3 with units set to .01, therefore to arrive
at a $3.95 shipping cost, 395 had to be entered. This is probably too much to expect from
a customer. Units is the field which sends this info to the cart.
Probably a good idea would be to use option 3 and set units to 1.00 in
admin which will then convert directly to a dollar amount.
Here's one for two auctions. It uses
the addmulti tag in the link. Each auction item will be shown on its own line within the
cart and the shipping charges for both items will be totaled in the cart.

To add additional auctions to the form, insert the following code between the tags at the bottom within the table. To add a fourth, do the same but be
sure to change the numbers to reflect the number of auctions you have within the form. The
name/value qty stays at 1 because you're only sending one of each to the cart.
