Hey guys,

I have the following code...

And what I want it to do but cant get it to do is add up all the price fields and change the sum every time a number is changed or a new line is added... but its not working?

Can anyone see my problem? And can help me fix this?

<script type="text/javascript">
function calculateSum() {
var sum = 0;
$("#price").each(function() {

//add only if the value is number
if(!isNaN(this.value) && this.value.length!=0) {
sum += parseFloat(this.value);
}

});

$("#sum").html('&pound;' + sum.toFixed(2));
}


$(document).ready(function(){       

    $('.del').live('click',function(){
        $(this).parent().parent().remove();
    });

    $('.add').live('click',function(){
        $(this).val('Delete');
        $(this).attr('class','del');
        var appendTxt = "<tr><td><input name='item[]' type='text' size='40' /></td><td><input name='qty[]' type='text' size='5' value='0' /></td><td><input name='price[]' id='price' type='text' size='20' value='0.00' /></td><td><input type='button' class='add' value='Add Row' /></td></tr>";

One small oversight:

$('#price').keyup(function() {
    calculateSum();
});

Only binds the event once, you should have used live here too:

$('price').live('keyup', function() {
    calculateSum();
});

In my example I've added class="price" and used .price instead of #price. Using the id is meant to specify a single item. In your case you have more than one, so use class. My entire code looks like this:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function calculateSum() {
        var sum = 0;
        $(".price").each(function() {
            //add only if the value is number
            if(!isNaN(this.value) && this.value.length!=0) {
                sum += parseFloat(this.value);
            }
        });
        $("#sum").html('&pound;' + sum.toFixed(2));
    }

    $(document).ready(function(){       
        $('.del').live('click',function(){
            $(this).parent().parent().remove();
        });

        $('.add').live('click',function(){
            $(this).val('Delete');
            $(this).attr('class','del');
            var appendTxt = "<tr><td><input name='item[]' type='text' size='40' /></td><td><input name='qty[]' type='text' size='5' value='0' /></td><td><input class='price' name='price[]' id='price' type='text' size='20' value='0.00' /></td><td><input type='button' class='add' value='Add Row' /></td></tr>";
            $("tr:last").after(appendTxt);  
        });

        $('.price').live('keyup', function() {
            calculateSum();
        });         

    });

            <td>Price</td>
            <td>&nbsp;</td>
        </tr>                  
        <tr>
            <td><input name="item[]" type="text" size="40" /></td>
            <td><input name="qty[]" type="text" value="0" size="5" /></td>

I would need the: id="sum"
as a number to put into a database.
