texte = Glenn, That works fine. But when I go to change subtotal to the new discounted price it does not change. That is my main problem, changing subtotal to the new price.Stephen-----Original Message----- From: WebCatalog Talk [mailto:WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com]On Behalf Of Glenn Busbin Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2000 8:46 AM To: WebCatalog Talk Subject: Re: Price Change There's more than one way to skin a cat using WC. The database approach I suggested (late at night after a long day) is one, but since your discounts are so simple, you can also just sum the costs of the items in the cart and use some [showif] [hideif] stuff.Sum the costs of the items BEFORE getting to [subtotal]. Then evaluate the temporarysubtotal to see if a discount should be given. If so, add a negative number to the cart that will deduct the appropriate amount.Try something along the order of:[showif [temporarysubtotal]>299] [hideif [temporarysubtotal]>499] [Discount]=-50[/hideif][/showif][showif [temporarysubtotal]>499] [Discount]=-55[/showif]In the html for the page, add a line that will display whatever discount is given or hide it if there isn't one.[showif [Discount]>0]
| Discount= | [Discount] |
[/showif]Then continue with the html and WC stuff as if there were no discount included. The negative values of [Discount] will be added to the cost of the Items ordered and will not foul up WC's built-in use of the [subtotal] and [grandtotal] calcs.
| Subtotal= | [subtotal] |
| Taxes= | [tax] |
| Grandtotal= | [grandtotal] |
etc.Lemme know how it works out.Glenn ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
