[mv] Partial Solution: total-cost not making it...

[Sydney Urshan <urshan@nethollywood.net>]

******    message to minivend-users from Sydney Urshan <urshan@nethollywood.net>     ******

I found out why I am having the problem.  It is my discount code.  If 
I put in a straight forward discount, it works.  Here is the code I 
have (for prorating):

[calc]
$days = [tag time]%d[/tag];
return '';
[/calc]

[item-list]
[discount 2001]
return ($s - ($s / 30 * $days)) if $days > 1;
[/discount]
[discount 2002]
return ($s - ($s / 30 * $days)) if $days > 1;
[/discount]
[discount 3001]
return ($s - ($s / 30 * $days)) if $days > 1;
[/discount]
[discount 3002]
return ($s - ($s / 30 * $days)) if $days > 1;
[/discount]
[/item-list]

If I delete the calc and hard wire in $days with a fixed number, it 
works.  I would also like the 30 to be calculated for the current 
month.  (If it is February, it would be 28, etc.)  Keep in mind that 
the above script works *visually*, but not for total-cost internally.

Also, is there a shortcut to discount these 4 products, but not the rest?

Lastly, none of this works with the [include file=, etc.

Can someone show me the error of my ways?
