Simple Order Status input box

I want to make a very simple order status box on my main page.

Basically I want to have one little input box where anyone can put in their order number and click submit. In this I want the submit button to open a url like this:

http://www.rjroffroad.com/order.php?status&orderid=#####

And I want it to use the data input into the box to complete the link.

I haven't the first clue how to do that. Any simple html methods to do that?

The problem with this is, what's stopping people from putting others order numbers in? Major security risk here IMHO and I don't recommend it.

First thing it does it take you to a login screen. If you don't have their login and password, you can't view it.

I thought that too, but created an order with a login I use alot, and then logged in with a test account, and it gives me an access denied screen. So you can't have just the order #, you have to have the login too.

Re: Simple Order Status input box

Insert this into any tpl you want.

Code:

{if $login}

<form method="GET" action="order.php?">

<input type="text" name="orderid">

<input type="submit" value="View my order">

</form>

{/if}

or create new /skin1/order.tpl with code

Code:

{if $login}

{capture name=menu}

<form method="GET" action="order.php?">

<input type="text" name="orderid">

<input type="submit" value="View my order">

</form>

{/capture}

{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_help.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_help menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu link_href="help.php"}

{/if}

and insert into home.tpl (or another) to left column this include

Code:

{include file="order.tpl"}

Comfortable thing! Enjoy!
