Can I make a checkbox list of items for the shopper to purchase?

When you create a basic add button using our button builder you will get code that looks like this.

<form method="post" style="margin-bottom: 0" action="https://linkpointcart.net/cgi-bin/cart.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="AddItempartno" value="demo|product description|4.95|1|partno||prompt|4" >
<input type="submit" value="Add To Cart" alt="Add to cart"/>
</form>

To change it to a checkbox, simply make this minor text change to the code, and add this line.

<form method="post" style="margin-bottom: 0" action="https://linkpointcart.net/cgi-bin/cart.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="AddItemNull" value="demo|" >
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno" value="demo|product description|4.95|1|partno||prompt|4" >
<input type="submit" value="Add To Cart" alt="Add to cart"/>
</form>

If you would like to combine multiple products into a large listing then simply copy the "checkbox" line from each button so that your code looks like this

<form method="post" style="margin-bottom: 0" action="https://linkpointcart.net/cgi-bin/cart.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="AddItemNull" value="demo|" >
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno" value="demo|product description|4.95|1|partno||prompt|4" >
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno2" value="demo|another description|6.95|1|partno2||prompt|3.1" >
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno3" value="demo|yet another description|8.95|1|partno3||prompt|4.5" >
<input type="submit" value="Add To Cart" alt="Add to cart"/>
</form>

Finally, if you want text next to each checkbox add it like so

<form method="post" style="margin-bottom: 0" action="https://linkpointcart.net/cgi-bin/cart.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="AddItemNull" value="demo|" >
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno" value="demo|product description|4.95|1|partno||prompt|4" >product description<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno2" value="demo|another description|6.95|1|partno2||prompt|3.1" >another description<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="AddItempartno3" value="demo|yet another description|8.95|1|partno3||prompt|4.5" >yet another description<br>
<input type="submit" value="Add To Cart" alt="Add to cart"/>
</form>
