I would like to add a handling fee using a % of the order.
It seems to me this should be easy, but I can't figure it out.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

well, now it is not working right. I am using the usps module, and I entered 3% into the handling fee option. It is adding $3 to the shipping cost not 3%.
WHat now?
Oba-san
That is increasing the Shipping Weight by 3% in weight ... not cost ...
You need to customize your shipping module(s) to increase the calculated cost by 3% ...

ok, how do I do that?
Oba-san
You would need to edit the shipping module(s) you are using and add the 3% to the cost ...
The shipping modules are all located in:
/includes/modules/shipping

is there a mod to do this, or somewhere I can more detailed instructions?
Oba-san
I don't know what shipping module(s) you are using as you refuse to say so I haven't a clue how to help you other than to tell you to adjust the cost in them ...
There a a zillion examples of customizations to shipping modules all throughout the forums ...

Silly me ... found what you are using ...
Look in the usps.php shipping module and look at the code:
$methods[] = array('id' => $type,
'title' => $title,
'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING) );
The $cost is what is being added to each charge and you want to adjust that for the Order Cost plus 3% ...
global $cart;
$order_total_amount = $_SESSION['cart']->show_total() - $_SESSION['cart']->free_shipping_prices() ;
would give you the order total ...
Add 3% to that then add that amount to the $cost ...
