    Default Shipping Estimator

    Hello,

    I have a question about the Shipping Estimator.

    Is it possible, once the customer clicks on Shipping Estimate and the page refreshes with the estimate, to have something show somewhere on the page that they received a shipping estimate? Ideally, in a red color similar to how you would receive an error if you missed something.

    Our problem is that since the page refreshes, a customer cannot see right away if they received an estimate and they need to scroll down. Just for usability sake, it would be nice for the customer that they received an estimate.


    Thanks for any help.

    No, this is on shoppingcart.aspx, before checkout.

    Sure, yes, it's possible to show big red text at top and even use javascript to auto-scroll down to the estimator area... (that wouldn't take long to do so contact jsimacek@compunix.us for a quote if you like)

    Thanks, at least I know it can be done.

    Unfortunately, the client really doesn't want to spend additional money, so I will have to try to talk them out of it.

    Thank you.

    No need for all of that....just simply make the page maintain position on postback, that way when it refreshes, the page will still be in the same scrolled position as before and they will see the estimate.

    Go to the top of the ShoppingCart.aspx file and where it says:

    Code:
    <%@ Page Language="c#" Inherits="AspDotNetStorefront.ShoppingCartPage" CodeFile="ShoppingCart.aspx.cs" %>
    add in MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback="True" therefore making it

    Code:
    <%@ Page Language="c#" Inherits="AspDotNetStorefront.ShoppingCartPage" CodeFile="ShoppingCart.aspx.cs"  MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback="True" %>
