Hello, I am working on a script, but I’m really not an expert. Any help will be highly appreciated. Description: I have items - some have option for adding an amount and some not (because they can be only 1). I need when the checkboxes are clicked (choosing an item) the total to be displayed in the text field at the bottom. the single items work fine, but when i choose the one that can be added amount, it deletes the total from the first ones. Below is the script so you can see what I’m trying to explain: ```auto
AAA $40  
BBB $30  
 
CCC $100 Amount:
 
Total:  
``` Thanks in advance for your help! ```auto ```
