This isn't working:

function apply_promo()
{
	var pcode = $("#promo").val();        
    alert(pcode);
    location.href = "index.php?req=quote&applypromo="+pcode;
}

pcode is blank every time. WTF?

Fuck me... it's like all I need to do is post something on here and then it jumps out at me. I had a div and text box with the same id. Grrr...

Hate that mistake (the dup id not the post and realize mistake)

this might be silly, but why not just use a submit form for that?

Because I want them to see the discount before they enter the checkout process and I don't want to submit the whole form?

Just asking a question since there was no context, snarko.

Of course, I'd probably still submit the form rather than use window.location but that is me.

Sorry, wasn't trying to be snarky.

I have no issues with location.href.

It is mostly personal preference. If the page has a form I'd rather use the native submit functionality (even if I'm triggering it in JS).

Agreed. But the noted action just updates a single part of a shopping cart and is not intended to move the user further into the process.
