Hello Gazza, I have a "United Postal Service" shipping script that I would like to use in place of the one that comes with nebucart. How would I incorporate it into my cart. The script is already written, I just need to figure out how to prevent nebucart shipping from displaying on the "customer data.html", and replace it with my script. Also, my scrit goes directly to the United Postal Service website(It's live). It displays a drop-down tab of the different shipping methods that a customer can choose from. The shipping option are in real time. Any information would help.
Thanks

Hi Andre,
In order to have NebuCart factor in their prices, we would need to first tell UPS how much weight and to what destination so they can return the amount to charge.
Once we receive the charge, we need to add that to the total on NebuCart so when they checkout they can pay including the shipping charged by UPS in real-time.
So far, I have not found a courier that can successfully accept a post of weight and destination and be able to return a price for integration with NebuCart.
You may want to consider using my Ship-By-Zone MOD that I created a couple of years ago which you program with the prices available from UPS or any other couriers and then when the customer completes their address, my MOD will calculate the weight and detination and charge the shipping accordingly both for International and for local - based on zip codes.
If you can show me the way you want to integrate this code from UPS I can then advise you better on how to do it.
Hope that helps,
Gary

Hello Gazza, Thanks for your quick reply. I will take a look at your "ship by zone" mod. If you go to http://www.andreart.com/usps_demo.asp you will see the demo shipping calculator that I would like to incorporate into nebucart. You will notice that the qty ordered must somehow be merged with my cart qty for this calculator to work. Maybe it's too much work for me to figure out. It may be way over my head, but let me know if it can be used with nebucart.
Thanks

Hello Gazza, I took a look at your "Ship-by-zone" mod, and I must say that it looks exactly like the one I wanted you to take a look at. I think the only difference is that the one I have is setup directly onto USPS's web server. In that case the shipping charges are up to date and live. If I use the one that you wrote, it's doing the same thing, but I have to manually check USPS's site periodically to keep up with the most recent shipping charges. Is this correct? Is there a way to have yours put onto the USPS's web server so it can display the live shipping charges?
Oh yeah, while I have you, I wanted to change the final buttons on the "secure page" to match the rest of my buttons. I tried re-writing the same script as I wrote on my "NC_viewcart_img.js", but it did not seem to change the secure page buttons. I wrote the following on the NC_finalbuttons.js page:
I replaced: <input type="button" value="' with:<image src="my image.gif
It worked on my cart pages and customer data page, but the buttons did not change on the "secure form" when I re-wrote the same script on the "NC_finalbuttons.js page. Can you give me any suggestions?
Thanks
Thanks Andre
