texte = If you're saying that insurance is available on individual items as opposed to the whole order, it would make sense to me to add it as a lineitem. It would take a bit of fiddling, but I think that it would be much clearer for your customer if, after adding an item to the cart, that they see something like:Item Category Qty Unit Price ================================================ Product A Cat Name 1 $100 $100 - insurance for Product A $5 Product B Cat Name 1 $100 $100 Product C Cat Name 1 $50 $50 - insurance for Product C $5 Product D Cat Name 1 $60 $60 Regards, Tim -- Tim Robinson IDFK Web Developments tim@idfk.com.au 114a/40 Yeo Street Neutral Bay 2089 Australia Phone +612 9908 2134 Fax +612 9908 4837> From: WJ Starck
