    I have absolutely NO idea how to write javascript, and I am wanting to create a simple calculator. Basically what I want it to do is this: I want 2 columns...the first column needs to have an "input" box where the site visitors can enter in the desired amount, that would then be automatically multiplied by $5.00, however I want it to show the $5.00 under the input box but I don't want that value to be changeable, it must be set. Anyhow, once that is done I want the total to show under column one. Now column two (right next to column one) should be like a copycat column, meaning whatever they enter into the "input" box on column one will automatically be entered into the "input" box in column two...however, that one needs to be multiplied by $25.00 (again I would like it to show the $25.00 value but not be changeable) and then show the total under column 2 as well. Then if at all possible, I would like for the two totals to be added together automatically and be shown in a 3rd "totals" box under the other two "totals" boxes.
    I have searched all over for about 4 hours trying to find something similar that is free and that I could figure out how to modify, with absolutely NO luck...so any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks :)

    Will probly need to talk to you on msn to clear a few bits up.

    OK

    I did not really understand what you wanted all that well but from what I did I have come up with this.

    Actually, I was informed that what I needed was something different anyhow, so I don't want you to put too much work into this one...the one that I had done was this one (I had help from another forum member on another site...I posted my request on several forums.) http://www.memoryvilleusafoundation.com/flash/calculate.html

    But he needs something much more complex and I can't do it so he is probably going to have to outsource and pay someone else to do it.
