Displaying GBP and another user selectable currency

Hi,
I'm looking into how to display two currencies on the page.
The default state of the website should be displaying prices in GBP only.

If a user selects another currency in the now enabled currencies sidebar select list, I would like that second currency to be displayed underneath the GBP price of products on product listing and product details pages. Example, user selects Euro, the site now displays prices in GBP, with Euro below.
The sidebar select list (currencies) should not change the main currency, which always wants to display GBP.

The checkout must only allow GBP checkout but could also display GBP and the user selected currency prices.

Using version 1.3.7 of zen cart with the Gloss Black template and some sidebar header modifications.

I've had a look at some of the currency threads but none seem to address this specific query - if I've missed the one that does, apologies, and please point me at it :)

Cheers,
Rob

Re: Displaying GBP and another user selectable currency

Hi,
I'm investigating alternative options to the above issue but am struggling to locate the code I'd like to take a look at (to then potentially mash something together from).

What I would like to see is the code that runs when a selection is made in the sidebox currencies panel?

I can see the form posts fine, and the currency is changed throughout the site to reflect the selection made - great - but *where *is the code that see's what selection was made and changes the sites default currency?

I've spent all evening searching this forum and searching the entire zen cart site files (dreamweaver find and replace search is great if you know what to look for???!) but simply can't find what I'm looking for - and more likely, am not searching for the right thing?

Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Rob
