Hi...

I had a customer who lives in Sweeden purchased a $19 item from my store and was able to bypass the standard flat shipping rate that I setup.

I ran two tests, one for delivery in the U.S. and the other one in Sweeden, in both tests, I had no choice but to select the flat rate shipping. I couldn't figure out how this person was able to bypass the shipping altogether.

I need some help!!!!!!!! ;)

Thanks

That's a biggy! - Pete why would FF or another browser effect that?

Arild has possibly the best explanation so far, but it would require to get to the stage before checkout surely, so you should have their details too.

Hi Decker - Not suggesting that Firefox is causing your cart problem but in FF at 1280x1024 ( or 1024x768) the display is so far to the right that its almost invisible. I'm in the process of setting up my first CC cart and am just staring to get to grips with mod'ing the layout but I havent hit that problem so I'm guessing its something you've twaked in the templates or CSS?

Maybe he has pushed the variable through the URL.

http://URL/cart.php?act=cart&shipping=0

Just a thought

Thanks Arild.

I tested it and it did force shipping to be zero, however, the entire transaction got thrown back to "step1" in CC checkout mod.

It was a great idea and an eye opener for a newbie like me. :(

Pete Grove..

Right on...my webpage is displayed exactly like what you described. How do I fix this?

In ref. to the CSS file, here is what my CSS is like...sorry if I take up too much room.

Maybe he used more variable to push it through. I dont know enough on how cart.php validate each step, but maybe some one with a little more knowledge may know.

I think more like this....

http://URL/cart.php?act=cart&shipping=1&step3=1&login=true

Is this possible if you know the excact variables involved....??

Maybe he has pushed the variable through the URL.

http://URL/cart.php?act=cart&shipping=0

Just a thought
