interpreted = N
texte = Look in the on-line docs under File Formats for the page on Formulas. When you add a line to the cart, WebCatalog will look for the price, unitshipcost, taxable, taxrate, and shipcost. You can add records to the Formulas.db to calculate any or all those based on the sku involved. In addition, you can use a formvariable for taxrate and shipcost.To give you a hint, you want to use [lookup] to find the appropriate unitshipcost from your table and mutiply by the appropriate percent based on the method chosen. The important thing to remember is that this has to happen on the page after the user makes their choices! One way to deal with that is to ask the user to chose a shipping method first, then add the line to the cart. The other way to do it is to update the cart after they have chosen the method of shipping.HTHJohn Peacock Martin Mansly wrote: > > I read them 50 times but don't get the sequence > of > > searching: Want the subtotal to look for the price in the > shipping cost db and come up with right amount. > > then > > add a percentage based on the pull down menu. > > I've tried switching around the General Store and > have had 20 different answers... none of them right. > > Any idea how start? > > I know the subtotal comes through. > > I just want to switch the freight amount because the > General Store is not realistic as it only ads one amount > on the whole shipment. >------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
