B16 will definitely have ciel() back in it, though.>I think >it is because we get the quantities for each product type ordered in that >same template (I guess you can have one input value depend on another in >the same web page)?Right, it has no idea what those quantities will be until you FORM thru to the next page (HTML sucks). Try embedding that big math/lineitems thing right into your formula instead. That way it will have a chance to see those quantities after the user enters them, and you won't have those ugly intermediate equation/form variables to pass thru.>The formula for shipCost still ends up with zero. Does the formula for >shipcost only get invoked when moving from the shoppingcart.tmpl -> >invoice.tmpl?No, all formulas are evaluated at $Add, $Remove, $ShowCart, and $Purchase times. WebCatalog has no idea you are going to an invoice page -- they're all just templates to it.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
