texte = I have done some experimentation with doing a tcp connect each time aproduct is added to the cart and setting the unitshipcost rather than justthe final cost. The problem is you need to ask what zip code they areshipping to, while adding the item.A better solutions is to setup the UPS tcpconnect within a lineitems toreset the UnitShipCost before the shoppingcart page is shown.Brian-----Original Message-----From: WebDNA Talk [mailto:WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com]On Behalf OfBen SwihartSent: Thursday, February 13, 2003 10:30 AMTo: WebDNA TalkSubject: UPS online tools assuming one package per item no matter thequantity.If a customer orders 5 of product XYZ, the UPS online tools is assumingthe merchant is packing up all 5 XYZ's into one package. It's moreexpensive to ship the same weight of product in separate packages asopposed to one.Has anyone else experienced this?
