No Attribute Flexibility - Need Help Please

Hi all

 

I am having a problem trying to find a solution. I have a client that sells products in two packages.

 

Product Info Page:

_________

.................| Product Name (2)lbs.

....PIC........| Product Price

.................| Qty Attribute: Upsize to 10 lbs

.................|

_________| Add to Cart

 

 

Package 1: $xx.xx (2)lbs.

Package 2: $xx.xx (10)lbs.

 

 

Package 1 & 2 are the same product, just more quantity in shipment package. So when changing the qty attribute, it should add 8lbs to the order and increase price. How can I do this?

 

I tried using the attributes in admin to do this, and it works -except that when I change the quantity attribute, it does not change the package weight, only price.

 

I have searched around the forum and seen some others with similar needs, but no real solid solution. Everyone was just talking about problems after installing some attribute contribution.

 

I am using the lastest 2.2 Milestone 2

 

 

Please... if you can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have not. I would like to. Will it work? Without breaking the cart- MS2.2?

 

If yes, please send a link!

 

Thank you for your reply! :D

Looks great! Only I can't seem to figure out what I need.

I opened the latest in the add weight to attributes

 

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...tributes+weight

 

and it says you need the UPS XML contribution

 

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...t+to+attributes

 

But it does not make sense... what they say you need.

 

in the ups xml it says:

 

IMPORTANT!!!!  This modification is ONLY for those who have the following to contributions added already.

 

UPS XML Rates 1.1.5a (Original file by Torin Walker)

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1323

and

 

Add Weight To Product Attributes v0.1 (Original file by kumar mcmillan)

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1622

 

But in UPS XML Rates 1.1.5a it only has:

 

change in categories.php

 

<td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . ' ' . tep_draw_checkbox_field('products_ready_to_ship', $pInfo->products_ready_to_ship); ?></td>

 

in:

 

<td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . ' ' . tep_draw_checkbox_field('products_ready_to_ship', '1', (($product['products_ready_to_ship'] == '1') ? true : false)); ?></td>

 

to fix the ready to ship checkbox not being checked when it should. And when it's checked and saved, the value isn't saved.

 

I don't get it :'(
