Try Field('total','double') (compute=None, writable=True, readable=True) and
jQuery("input[name='quantity'],input[name='price']").keyup(function() { jQuery("input[name='total']").val(parseFloat(jQuery("input [name='price']").val())*parseInt(jQuery("input[name='quantity']")); }); Use firebug in to debug the JS. compute should not be used if the field is shown.
