Do you have the $5 figure hard coded somewhere? Is it a minimum shipping
figure or something like that?

Subject: [wdvltalk] Perl script question

Hi all,

I wrote a script for a website using Mals cart that calculates the 
shipping based on a percentage of the total (the percentage differs 
depending on state) plus a $5 shipping and handling fee.  It seemed to 
work fine but I found out that if people just clicked "Return to Cart" 
the shipping was calculated as on the $5.  I changed the script so that 
the "Return to Cart" button would not work unless they had chosen a 
state.  All worked fine but I just got a call from the client saying 
that the shipping is coming out to $5 again. I checked the script and it 
is unchanged, so I am not sure how this is happening.  Any ideas??

The script is here: http://www.starqualitydesigns.com/blums/ship.cgi and 
can be seen in action here: http://www.blumspapergoods.com (add 
something to shopping cart and checkout to see but it is a live website, 
so please don't submit an order unless you really want to buy something. 
:-) )
