    Hi all,

    I have problems finding a module I need to solve our store problem. =
    Another item is being added to our store but the order will be fulfilled =
    in a different state. Therefore, shipping rates and state taxes must be =
    calculated from this new state. Currently we also use the UPS Online =
    module (that comes with the Miva package) so I would not want to dispose =
    of that UPS feature. Since I haven't found a module that would solve =
    our problem and I don't want to pay for custom miva module work, I =
    thought we would learn the scripting language and figure things out for =
    ourselves. I have considered UPS Online made by Vikingcoders, but you =
    have to manually update UPS shipping rates from the admin. Also we're =
    using a uncompiled version (and want to stay this way)

    To modify the existing UPS script I would need a starting point on this =
    project. I'm not too familiar with Miva scripts, but I think I know the =
    algorithm to solve this problem... one question I have is how do I check =
    if a basket contains a certain product? (ie. Basket.d.contains( =
    product_code) ) Unfortunately I don't know the function or variable =
    names.

    If this is a repost (I posted to merchant-users previously) please =
    ignore. Just need to get an idea as to where to go from here.

    And other suggestions would be highly appreciated!

    Cheers,
    Cheryl

    Shipping rates are simply handled based on the zip code. Just change that.

    Taxes - are normally based on where the item is shipped TO, not from.
