Ticket quantity +/- buttons

I’m trying to add some +/- buttons next to the ticket quantity field on the booking form. The default spinner on some browsers is not very easy to see. I created the buttons with a few lines of javscript and got to make them edit the field value. Where I’m having trouble having that new value processed.
Clicking on + will increment the “quantity” field by 1, but the form still acts like the value didn’t change. So if there was 1 ticket and I click on +, the field will change to 2, but the form will act like the value is still 1.
Is there some function or ajax event that I need to tap into on my script?

Hi Nicolas,

- The only spinner I’m aware of is next to the ‘book now’ button, and I don’t see how that’s relevant to your question…
There is a JavaScript API for this:
//eventorganiserpro.eoCart.increase_ticket_quantity( ticket_id ) //eventorganiserpro.eoCart.decrease_ticket_quantity( ticket_id )but it is not currently documented. The most straightforward solution might be to trigger a JavaScript change event when altering the value (this is typically only triggered in response to a user action, and not when you alter the value of the field directly).

By spinner I mean the little up/down buttons on the ticket quantity selector field. They’re automatically added by each browser to any input of type “number”.
Anyway, I did exactly what you suggested and it worked great, thanks!
Ah, I see – I had in mind a ‘loading’ spinner (icon).
