shipping options in my cart?

first...let me aplogize if I shouldn't post this question here...

I have created a few web site apps that use e-commerce technologies using ASP and XML. These are typical sites, with shipping, tax, blah blah. Usually it's standard shipping and is just related to the weight of the entire order. Now, I've been asked to add several shipping options (i.e. Overnight, One-Day, Standard). My question...I did some searching around first but without luck...are the sites that offer multiple shipping options tied in with another company such as UPS? Or is it just more data that I can deal with on my own?

....sorry this isn't a technical question...if anyone can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!

TIA

Hi, I have a client who is wanting to compute UPS shipping charges for his orders. I believe it is possible to query a UPS service (well, something online, be it a normal cgi ro real web service) to compute actual shipping costs of parcels from within ones shopping cart script. Am I correct in this, does anybody know where I can find information regarding how this is done? I'm busy searching the UPS website, but not

I know there are lots of shopping carts out there (ZenCart, etc). But so far none of them seem to have a good built in shipping calculator with various options. Can anyone recommend something? And what do people think of products like this: http://shop.finalhost.com/dreamweaver-plus.asp The bottom one seems great. Other than not being able to handle UPS shipping, has tons of useful features. But maybe there is more than meets the eye.

I need to implement a dirt cheap replication method for some dirt cheap servers. We are using the SQL Server workgroup license. Is there anything in this that prevents using log shipping for replication in Workgroup versus Enterprise? Thanks Travis

Anyone know of any good shipping components for adding to a custom built shopping cart. Or if you develop a shipping piece, is it best to ship by weight or by item meaning that each item will cost X amount to ship. Thanks

I am developing a shopping cart application and would like to determine (based on weight, dimensions, and destination) the actual shipping charges that USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and/or Airborne would charge. Each shipper has APIs that support this functionality... E-Commerce Shipping Solutions http://www.nfib.com/object/1583793.html Does anyone have or know of any information about doing this.

In shopping cart I have a Product Quantity and Unitcost per product. Should I calculate shipping (per item weight * Quantity) for each item or should I add up total weight and calculate shipping rate. See my examples, e.g (1) ProductID Quantity Weight(per item) subtotal calculate Shipping rate 1 3 0.5 lb 1.5 lb $ 1.30 (e.g) 2 2 1 lb 2 lb $ 2.00

I'm developing a shopping cart for an ecommerce website. No big deal until I looked into calculating the postage and shipping of the product. By now I figured that UPS and The USPS would have a free XML web service to provide this information. Sofar as I can tell they do not. My research on this is coming up dry. Of course there are crude ways to estimate postage, then tack on a few dollars for handling. This is all a little too...

Hi there, I'm writing a very simple shopping cart for a friend, but I'm confusing myself with the SQL required to return postage costs for each product in the cart, at checkout. It's probably best to show you my tables first, each postage rate can apply to multiple products, product ranges, and countries. For example, postage rate X could be $80 postage to USA, France, Germany for all products within ranges 1,2,3 and product 15 which is...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
