The first button is titled US and the >second is named International. Our users will have to click on one of these >buttons to determine their shipping cost. The name of the variables for >both buttons are shipcost. The predefine values of the shipcost >variable is then passed on to the cart template via a form. >My problem is that I cannot get the grand-total on the cart template to >reflect the correct answer when the products selected are itemized and >summed up on the cart template. Is there a way to add the shipping cost >for each product to the price and have it summed in the grand-total.If you're doing shipping and handling for each product, use [unitshipcost] instead. You can put the value (or a formula) in either the product database or in formulas.db, you can put it into the shopping cart either when you add the product or with a [setlineitem] context, you can display it on the invoice page, and it should be added to the Grand Total correctly (remember that the UnitShipCost won't be taxed unless you do some trickery to add it to the price or something).I hope this helps,Marc Eagle StarNine Technologies http://www.smithmicro.com/
