[ic] Re: Adding non-taxable OnFly objects to cart

[David Schnardthorst]

Well, I have tested it and this appears to work by adding the following:

<input type="hidden" name="mv_order_fly" value="description=Invoice Web
Payment|price=0|mv_nontaxable=1">

Thanks for your help,


Thanks,

My SpamAssassin setup scored David's article at only 0.7, matching the
following tests: HTML_40_50, HTML_MESSAGE and HTML_TAG_BALANCE_TABLE.
The article didn't get flagged as spam, on my setup, because of its low
score.

Your article scored 0.0, Mike, as do most of the articles I receive from
this list.

That's right.  The OnFly subroutine returns a fully-setup item hashref,
so you'd simply set the mv_nontaxable key, as appropriate, before
returning the reference.

David, if you're using the default OnFly mechanism then you should
create your own instead, so that you can code it to do what you need.
For instance, you shouldn't be specifying the price in your
"mv_order_fly" variable; the tag should work out the price for itself,
based upon whatever criteria you code into your UserTag.

If you really must use the default mechanism then the following will
probably work:

    <input type="hidden" name="mv_order_fly" value="description=Invoice
Web Payment|price=0|mv_nontaxable=1">
