[REBOL] REBOL on-line ordering Re:

From: ralph:abooks at: 5-Sep-2000 8:16

In writing the online order forms, we had to construct a very tedious spreadsheet postal rates. Unfortunately, international mail does not follow any discernable pattern, it is all over the place. You can generalize for regions--such as Europe, Asia, etc.--but not even very accurately then. It is a true headache<g>... As to UPS or RPS shipments, yes it would be easier to do a script which calculates the charge based on weight and destination. I'm working on one myself and plan on including it in my next book on REBOL. --Ralph
