Asked By CraftyCoder23 On

I'm currently building a student portal for a school, and I'm trying to add a page for ordering uniforms. I want students to select the items they want from a dropdown menu, and I need the price for each item to be automatically retrieved from a database. I'm using JavaScript, React, Node.js, and MySQL, but I'm struggling to figure out how to get this all set up properly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

To tackle this, break your project into smaller tasks. Start by creating a React page where you can display the available uniform items. You'll also need a management page to upload images, set item names, and adjust inventory. Make sure your database is set up correctly and that you're able to query the data to return relevant information through your API. Without knowing exactly what issues you're facing, it's tough to advise further, but starting with item display is key!

It sounds like you're on the right track! You just need to ensure that the dropdown selection triggers a fetch request to your database. In React, you can do this using an `onChange` handler that calls your Node/Express API to get the item price from MySQL. Once you retrieve the price, update your component's state and it should automatically display the updated value. This approach will help streamline the process.
