text

A. Dynamic table to display form errors. B. Error message. C. Text inputs for entering shipping information. D. Form submission button.

Content Sources

There is a single content source, the Order Form.

A

All of the checkout pages have a similar design. There is an orange section at the top to display errors, and then a form for entering or changing order information. The errors are displayed using a dynamic table bound to the Order Form/Order Errors content source. This content source gives a list of all the errors.

If there are no errors, then the dynamic table has now rows and is invisible. Otherwise there is one row per error message.

B

The error text is bound to the Error Message field of the Order Form/Order Errors content source.

C

The text fields are all simple bindings to the appropriate fields in the Order Form. Every Custom Merchant provider offers a different set of fields, so you'll need to tune your checkout pages to your provider.

D

The Continue button submits the user's shipping information using the Update Order Form action. If there is an error, it redisplays the current page so that the user can fix the problem. Otherwise it goes on to the Billing Address page.
