texte = I am currently working on my fourth catalog site, and have run into a snag. I have looked the code over for hours on end, and cannot see if I am missing anything. The problem that I am running into works perfectly on my other three catalog sites, but not on this one.It is my understanding that [taxTotal] tag is automatically calculated by WebCatalog as your taxrate divided by 100, and multiplied by your subtotal. Therefore, it would seem to reason that, if the invoice page contained the correct values for both [subTotal] and [taxRate], that the [taxTotal] tag would also contain the correct value. While this holds true on my other three sites, this does not seem to work on the current site I am working on, and I am getting frustrated.Formulas.db tells WebCatalog to go to taxrates.db, which it does withoutfail. If I change the value in taxrate.db, the displayed taxrate on theinvoice page changes to reflect. When I change quantities or products, the subtotal changes to match. But, the taxtotal always shows 0.00. I haveverified that the state code matches what is in taxrate.db. Is there another component I am not factoring in?Please Help...Dennis Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
