[ic] passing variables to usertags

[Donald Lin]

Try putting the variables inside the brackets. So in your case it would be:

 [austpost_calc Height=100 Length=100 Width=100 Weight=500 Quantity=1
Pickup_Postcode=6167 Destination_Postcode=2014 Country=US
Service_Type=Express] [/austpost_calc]

and if this doesn't work try putting "" around the values. I currently have
usertags working and I define my variables in this way.

Hope this helps,
Donald
