little challenge

Hi everyone,

I have a little challenge for you today. I want to get rid of the tax column in the tpl_checkout_confirmation_default.php file.

Here is a picture of it, I encircled the part I want to get rid in red.

I use splitaxlines and french add-on.

Here is the code of the file :

Thank you very much for your help.

Tax is only shown if you have at least one tax group defined.

However, if you dont want to show the tax at all, replace the following line ( 2 occurences) in the file above

if (sizeof($order->info['tax_groups']) > 1) {

with

if (FALSE &&  sizeof($order->info['tax_groups']) > 1) {

I want to charge tax, just not show a much.

I followed yours instruction but the page go blank.
