Why wont this work.. Entire order discount..

["Richard Teachout" <richt@teachout.com>]

(trying to discount entire order by 10% if over 500.00 and
by 5% if over 200 and 0 if below that...
Is there just a better way and I'm missing it?

On my basket page I have...

-Snip-just before I display the subtotal

[subtotal]   # this if for troubleshooting the code below
[if explicit]
[condition]
$var = "[subtotal noformat=1]";
if ($var gt 500){
return 1;}
else{
return 0;}
[/condition]
[discount ENTIRE_ORDER] $s * .90 [/discount]
[else]
  [if explicit]
  [condition]
  $subtotal = '[value subtotal]';
  return 1 if $subtotal > '200';   #just to try a different formula
  return 0;
  [/condition]
  [discount ENTIRE_ORDER] $s * .95 [/discount]
   [else]
   [discount ENTIRE_ORDER][/discount]
   [/else
  [/if]
[/else]
[/if]
[subtotal]   # this if for troubleshooting the code to see if it worked

-End Snip-

I also added a [discount ENTIRE_ORDER][/discount] at the beginning of the
page
to clear it on opening the page.

Any Ideas?
