Shipping question



******    message to minivend-users from "Kris Kelley" <sysadmin@jahoopa.com>     ******

Currently I'm trying to set up an example store with very simple 
shipping rates:  all orders would be shipped by the US post office, 
with the cost determined by the quantity of items purchased.  My 
shipping.asc file looks like this (slighty altered for readability):

code    description     criteria        min     max     formula
0       No shipping     quantity        0       999999  e No shipping 
                                                          mode
                                                          selected.
default No shipping     quantity        0       999999  g PriceDivide

usps    US Post Office  quantity        0       0       e Nothing to
                                                          ship!
usps    US Post Office  quantity        1       10      4.00
usps    US Post Office  quantity        11      20      7.00
usps    US Post Office  quantity        21      999999  10.00

Because I'm using only one shipping method, I figured all I had to do 
was set the DefaultShipping directive in catalog.cfg to 
"DefaultShipping   usps", and then reconfigure the catalog.  
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work.  My guess is it reverted to 
one of the default shipping methods, because nothing was written to 
error.log, yet the shipping was always calculated as zero.

Now, when I explicitly set the shipping method on the checkout page, 
using a [default] tag, it works fine.  I'm thinking this shouldn't be 
necessary, however, so I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing 
about how to set the default shipping method.  Help?
