PHP - Update Web Form w/ a Diffrent Web Form - Possible?

[scottdev 0]

Hi

 

I'm a bit new to php, but have helped develop a couple of projects several years ago - trying to make the time to "re-enter" the php world.

 

I'm trying to first find out if this idea even can be done - never heard of anything like it: I want to update a web form that was opened via login on one of the ecommerce marketplace websites with another webform I create on my own hosted site. The opened web form (from the logged in website) would already have a template contained in it with spaces where variables would be inserted.

 

The issue is that I have hundreds of the same type of product in inventory that I want to enter. Each has it's own brand, model number, etc. Basically it's a quick way to create product records without needing to re-enter 12 diffrent variables in several diffrent places withing the inventory record.

 

I know I could develop something like this via web form and a data base using trim functions or something along those lines, but really want something that gets the inventory entered fast and instantly (versus needing to upload a file).

 

Thanks for taking the time to look at my idea.

 

 

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

 

Project: Custom Data Entry Form to Enter Inventory - PHP Web Form.

 

Project Summary: Script would allow data entry of inventory items via web form. The data entered into the fields within the form would populate one or more {variable} fields contained in the description text within another web form that is open on another website via login on a ecommerce marketplace website.

 

Rationale: The issue here is that many of the variables that need to be entered have to be retyped and entered over several times when creating a product record. This solution allows the entery of variables just once, and have them recorded in all of the places they need to go automatically within a template.

 

Variable Data Entry Form:

 

{sku_number}

{brand}

{model_number}

{manufacturer}

{mpn}

{input}

{output}

{connector_type}

{condition}

{addl_details}

{regular_price}

{our_price}

 

Actual Inventory Product Record Example Template:

 

Title: 

{brand} AC Power Supply Adapter No. {model_number} - (Refurbished)

 

Product Description:

{brand} AC Power Supply Adapter No. {model_number}. (Refurbished - {condition}). Sku: {sku_number}. 100% Satisfaction Guarantee Policy.

Product Details / Specifications:

 

Brand: {brand}

Model Number: {model_number}

Manufacturer: {manufacturer}

MPN: {mpn}
