Help with Table Rates

[tegz1]

Hi from a newby here

I have looked everywhere but cant seem to find an answer to ending the table rate. What I am trying to do is include Australian Post Packs one for 3kg and one 5kg. Anything over 5kg will be calculated by the Australian Post module. At the moment the table rate keeps on calculating $0.00 for over 5kg. How do I tell it to finish at 5kg?

Sorry for the ramble and I will appreciate any help. Thanks Sarah

I found this solution from Fluxmaster, but I can not seen to get it to work. Can somebody explain where I should be putting this code? Any other suggestions welcome.

I hacked a horrid little answer to this.


Code:
$table_cost = split("[:,]" , MODULE_SHIPPING_TABLE_COST);
$size = sizeof($table_cost);
for ($i=0, $n=$size; $i<$n; $i+=2) {
if ($order_total <= $table_cost[$i]) {

if ($table_cost[$i+1] ==10000){
$shipping = "die";
} else{
$shipping = $table_cost[$i+1];
}
break;
}
}
If $this->quotes['methods'][0]['cost'] set to 0 still gives value of $0.00 shipping. Why?

So I check to see shipping is set to a value, and return nothing if its set to "die" or 0. If I did more object oriented coding I might offer better solution.. So make the quote function return nothing.

line ~ 114

Code:
if ($shipping != "die") {
return $this->quotes;
}It works ok but not great - still would take suggestions.

Did anyone have any luck on this one..?

I've just come across the same requirement whereby I want to offer a 3Kg Overnight Service via the Table Rate, but once the weight goes over 3Kg, then the Table Rate should no longer present an option, just the Aust Shipping Mod

A quick work around..

In the Shipping Table in Admin\Shipping Modules\Table Rate, I have entered 3:10.454545 (3 being the maximum weight for this option and the 10.454545 the price. If you wanted to offer a 5K then it could be 3:10.454545,5:15.656565) Once the shipping weight exceeds the set weight, the shipping estimator will return $0.00. All I then did was add some text to read (This option only available upto 3K)

Probably not the preferred method, but it works...
