Shipping/total calculation problem (help?)

I just want all orders to be $6 shipping. No matter what. I changed the shipping option to custom and changed the custom shipping variable to 6.00. Problem is, the cart subtracts amounts from total at checkout. It does it on all items and multiple items. Check out this link for more info:

Please, someone have any suggestions?

Re: Shipping/total calculation problem (help?)

I did some more testing... I started using the weight custom shipping and just added a BASE variable as $6 and all the items have a 0.00 weight so 6+(x * 0.00) is always $6. BUT I get the same outcome, it always tries to get rid of the shipping. On the final page (as seen in the above link) it always subtracts just enough from the item total to negate the shipping. I changed the shipping to $5.88 and it changed the total accordingly to make it $3.40 (the item cost). So, what gives? HELP!  smile

Re: Shipping/total calculation problem (help?)

Your example doesn't show the whole custom script.  Can you post it here.  My suspicion is that your hidden form field has 0.00 as the price.  That's what the program reads to figure out the shipping.

Re: Shipping/total calculation problem (help?)

Hey, I went ahead and paid for some tech support and filled out the tech form. To me, it seems like a small problem that I am overlooking something and hopefully you guys (knowing the software) can easily penpoint it. I *really* need this site functional by this weekend. Any chance you can look at it today?

Thanks,
Greg

Re: Shipping/total calculation problem (help?)

Ok.  We figured out your issue.  Basically we plugged in your script into a test install we built and found out that you have two problems:

(1) You have a hidden field for shipinfo, plus a radio button.  That is screwing the program up.  Only pass one field.

(2) This may be because we copied the code from the forum, but the last line: ENDOFTEXT had a space at the end of it.  That's not allowed.  It's got to be ENDOFTEXT with an enter right at the end.  Like I said, that's probably from the forum, so if you copy the code from here, look out for that.

Here is the working custom script:
