I need something that'll do the following :

price 1 x number of days = 1price
also
price 2 (different rate) x number of days = 2price

it'd be great if i can also use a pop up calendar to fill in the number of days automatically ...

There's millions of scripts out there that works out all sorts of calculations (mortgage, airspeeds, wind resistance etc)- but i can't seem to find something this simple (?) anywhere - on the usual script sites ...

Can anyone help ?

Sounds like a normal calculator would do the trick mate. Fisher Price?

Jesting...hehe

I know someone who had someting like this...I'll see if I can get it.

something like this???

Code:

function rateCalc (price, rate, days) {
	var final_price = Math.round(((price * rate * days))*100)/100;  //round to 2 dec
	return final_price;
}

guess it would help if I understood what context you are using it in, but yes it would be a simple as something like that... for the most part

its for an item hire ...

i.e. item1 = £10 per day - input number of days in a form field and hit 'submit' to calculte the total.
item2 -= £12.30 per day - same process - new figures !

something tied in with a pop up calendar would be perfect - select dates and select the item - and calculate !

bingo !!

does that help ?

it now sounds like this client wants :

- to calculate a total cost (with rate conversion above)
- to add additional charges where neccessary
- to forward all that info to a booking form
- to take credit card details via ssl
- to send auto confirmation emails

... so, unless I'm very much mistaken - that sounds like a shopping cart feature is required !!
but only for 2 products ... and this hasn't been budgeted for.

I'm looking at romancart and mals-ecommerce for dead quick, hosted set up - minimal time spent is my requirement.

anyone care to suggest anything ??
(apart from "get a clearer brief next time, knobhead")
