For example in your catalog.db you've got Price and then you've got DiscPriceA, DiscPriceB, etc. for every product if in fact there is a different price for every product. This way it gets added to the cart w/ the correct price in the first place. Log the guy in to your site generate a cart and then based on a showif/hideif show DiscPriceA.Another way I did it was to total the invoice page then do [math] 20% discount on the total as a line item. But I think the first way is easier, that's what I still do now.Charlie__________________________________________________________________________Charlie Romero(703) 917-4148mailto:charlie@jumpinternet.comhttp://www.jumpinternet.com__________________________________________________________________________Great Companies Powered By JUMP INTERNET: http://www.porschezone.com The only Porsche portal. http://www.bmwcentral.com The only BMW portal. http://www.optux.com Clickstream Business Intelligence_________________________________________________________________________-------------------------------------------------------------Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.To end your Mail problems go to
