Hello Sir, I am back....I was off sick for last few days.....I am very sorry for late feedback....

 

I installed your second version it is working awsom i have not found as such any error yet....what i will suggest now the time is to add some new features.....let me know your feedback on this....then we will start making wish list......

 

From my side if you change first version as per all my past feedbacks and you should go ahead and release Second (beta) version for AuctionTastic.....

 

I truly became your "Coding Fan" after working with you on this......

 

Thanks

Is this an ebay style auction where I can have people come to my site and add their auction items?

Nope osCommerce is a shop system .. therefore you can auction YOUR products.

Is there any contrib's out there that have this ability or is it a future possibility of this one?

Hi,

Thanks for your post.

 

One small (but painful) bug i got, just want to inform you, some how i got two entries of my own bid one after one?

 

I doubt that some how due to net lag( delay in database update) i got two entries, but both were having different price value?

 

Also while playing around i mess up my left & right column border (only in product.info page other places fine). Now some how it is not showing any outline.....can u guide me on this ?

Can you replicate this issue? The only time I have seen this is where ..

 

I bid

someone else bids

I bid

someone else bids and wins

 

The winner doesn't complete the purchase and admin removes their bids.

 

What's left is ..

 

My bid

My bid

 

Also while playing around i mess up my left & right column border (only in product.info page other places fine). Now some how it is not showing any outline.....can u guide me on this ?

I can't really help with html issues that you have created on your own site .. it's outside of the realms of support.

Sorry for my slow reply have been quite busy.

 

Creating an auction in admin the prices should be ex vat. On the front end both bids and prices shown should be incl vat.

 

I'll try and check it myself later.

Hi, your multiple product auctions looks all right but there is something missing.

 

1.I'm missing categories in auction products, cos when you have got too many product (50), is difficult to find what you are looking for. If I would be visitor of this auction (on my web too) I would just go to another web instead of spending long time in there.

 

2.If I've got one product as “BUY IT” and the some product on auction too and I've got just one in stock and somebody have bought it already from categories as “BUY IT”, my auction still works and people can still bid on the product even is not in stock already.

 

But all auction is really good idea and I'm happy you provided the auction on web.

And it would be good if people could just add them own products for auction. :D

 

Thank you

1) Not on my list of "things to do" but may consider it if enough requests.

 

2) Valid point .. at auction creation stock should be reduced by one.

 

And it would be good if people could just add them own products for auction

 

I've got no intention of doing this whatsoever.

Thankyou very much error is gone now.......

 

one thing i wish a auction should have in the time remaining-------it should recursively call lust like setTimeout in javascript....so that time should show each and every second left..i mean it should tick-tick up to last second......

 

I wish u can understand with my words....

 

i simply want user should get time remaining second by second.....

 

i tried to do this with by introducing new js function which will be call from countdown function...with argument as balance time and then recursive call by setTimeout in js....

 

still by fonts are not showing as it is in echo by php...i am using write.html of js........

 

function i used......

 

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

 

function countdown_clock(second1, format1)

{

 

html_code = '<div id="countdown"></div>';

 

document.write(html_code);

 

 

countdown(second1, format1);

}

 

function countdown(time_difference, format)

{

 

Time_Left = time_difference;

 

if(Time_Left < 0)

Time_Left = 0;

 

switch(format)

{

case 0:

//The simplest way to display the time left.

document.all.countdown.innerHTML = time_difference + ' seconds';

break;

case 1:

//More datailed.

days = Math.floor(Time_Left / (60 * 60 * 24));

Time_Left %= (60 * 60 * 24);

hours = Math.floor(Time_Left / (60 * 60));

Time_Left %= (60 * 60);

minutes = Math.floor(Time_Left / 60);

Time_Left %= 60;

seconds = Time_Left;

 

dps = 's'; hps = 's'; mps = 's'; sps = 's';

//ps is short for plural suffix.

if(days == 1) dps ='';

if(hours == 1) hps ='';

if(minutes == 1) mps ='';

if(seconds == 1) sps ='';

 

 

document.all.countdown.innerHTML = days + ' day' + dps + ' ';

document.all.countdown.innerHTML += hours + ' hour' + hps + ' ';

document.all.countdown.innerHTML += minutes + ' minute' + mps + ' and ';

document.all.countdown.innerHTML += seconds + ' second' + sps;

break;

 

default:

document.all.countdown.innerHTML = Time_Left + ' seconds';

}

 

time_difference=time_difference-1;

 

//Recursive call, keeps the clock ticking.

setTimeout('countdown(' + time_difference + ', ' + format + ');', 1000);

}

 

 

</script>

 

 

and i called it from

 

function auctionsCountdown($datetime) {

 

$datetime = strtotime($datetime);

$curr_time = time();

if( $datetime < $curr_time ){

$this->manageAuctionComplete();

}

// get current unix timestamp

$today = time();

$difference = $datetime - $today;

if ($difference <= 0) $difference = 0;

$days_left = floor($difference / (60 * 60 * 24));

$remainder = $difference % (60 * 60 * 24);

$hours_left = floor($remainder / (60 * 60));

$remainder = $remainder % (60 * 60);

$minutes_left = floor($remainder / 60);

$seconds_left = $remainder % 60;

if( $difference == 0 ){

echo COUNTDOWN_COMPLETE . "\n";

return;

}

elseif($difference<300)

{

?>

 

<script type="text/javascript">

<?

 

$second2 = $difference ;

?>

 

countdown_clock(<?= $second2 ?>, 1);

</script>

 

 

</td>

<?php

return;

}

 

//Build output string

if( $days_left != 1 ){

echo $days_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_DAYS_TEXT . ' ';

} else {

echo $days_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_DAY_TEXT . ' ';

}

if( $hours_left != 1 ){

echo $hours_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_HOURS_TEXT . ' ';

} else {

echo $hours_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_HOUR_TEXT . ' ';

}

if( $minutes_left != 1 ){

echo $minutes_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_MINUTES_TEXT . ' ';

} else {

echo $minutes_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_MINUTE_TEXT . ' ';

 

}

echo $seconds_left . ' ' . COUNTDOWN_SECONDS_TEXT . "\n";

 

 

}

Ok clear, but if the bidders come from different countries with different taxes there is a problem with new bids. When there is a shop in Austria there are 20% Vat., a German bidder only has 19% Vat. When i am bidding 5.00€ from Germany there will be a Maxbid of 5.36€ !???

Should´nt this be 5.00€ for every bidder??

 

Kind Regards

Sascha

[Dasch]

Another BUG :-)

 

I have an article with a price of 15000€

No one can bid on it. i think its because of the jacascript that compares if the bid price is higher...

correct?

The auction uses the standard osCommerce tax calculations so I doubt it is a bug. If you have set up different tax rates for different countries then the individual bidder should have tax calculated according to your shop tax set up for their country.

Don't sound so surprised, these is in beta and you are a beta tester :) It wasn't possible for me to test all international variants by myself.

Thanks for spotting this, I think it identifies a raw figure processing problem . .

 

catalog/includes/modules/auctions/auction_bids.php

 

Find ..

 

$bid_unformatted = ($this->auctions_price_array['raw'] + $this->auctions['auctions'][$this->auctionKey]->overbid_amount);
$with_tax = $currencies->calculate_price($bid_unformatted, tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id']));
$no_tax = number_format(tep_round(($bid_unformatted * $currencies->currencies[$currency]['value']), $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_places']), $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_places'], $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_point'], $currencies->currencies[$currency]['thousands_point']);
$validNewBid =  number_format(tep_round(($with_tax * $currencies->currencies[$currency]['value']), $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_places']), $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_places'], $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_point'], $currencies->currencies[$currency]['thousands_point']);
$validNewBidDisplay = $currencies->display_price($bid_unformatted, tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id']));

 

Change to ..

$bid_unformatted = ($this->auctions_price_array['raw'] + $this->auctions['auctions'][$this->auctionKey]->overbid_amount);
$with_tax = $currencies->calculate_price($bid_unformatted, tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id']));

$validNewBid =  number_format(tep_round($with_tax * $currencies->currencies[$currency]['value'], $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_places']), $currencies->currencies[$currency]['decimal_places'], '.', '');
$validNewBidDisplay = $currencies->display_price($bid_unformatted, tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id']));

 

Let me know how it works for you.

 if (CountActive)
