Re: [mv] Quantity Pricing Question-Different Approach!

[OTR Comm <otrcomm@isp-systems.com>]

Gosh, all I was wanting to know was how to addd a quantity of items to
the cart from quantity.html.

I was checking to see if the item is already in the cart.  Then is
someone goes to 'Quantiry Pricing' they could make the choice to
purchase a quantity at the quantity price.  Then, if they did, the cart
would be adjusted for the quantity and the quantity price.  Nothing more
nothing less.

By the way, Mike, did you ever look at the Cybercash/Minivend inteface
that I developed and offered to Minivend?

I am now in the process of developing a FULL accounting system similar
to MAS90 that will interface to Minivend.
