How to remove items weight from USP XML shipping quote?

Can anybody help me with howto tweak USP XML module **not **to show order weight in a shipping quote? I want only ETA to show.

here is example on how it looks in standard version:

United Parcel Service (1 pkg x 9.00 kgs total) (UPS Standard, ETA: May 30, 2011)

Thank you in advance for tips.

Look in includes/modules/shipping/ups.php for the lines that look like the below. Try commenting out this entire section as it is responsible for creating the weight display string.

    if ( (is_array($upsQuote)) && (sizeof($upsQuote) > 0) ) {
      switch (SHIPPING_BOX_WEIGHT_DISPLAY) {
        case (0):
        $show_box_weight = '';
        break;
        case (1):
        $show_box_weight = ' (' . $shipping_num_boxes . ' ' . TEXT_SHIPPING_BOXES . ')';
        break;
        case (2):
        $show_box_weight = ' (' . number_format($ups_shipping_weight * $shipping_num_boxes,2) . TEXT_SHIPPING_WEIGHT . ')';
        break;
        default:
        $show_box_weight = ' (' . $shipping_num_boxes . ' x ' . number_format($ups_shipping_weight,2) . TEXT_SHIPPING_WEIGHT . ')';
        break;
      }
      $this->quotes = array('id' => $this->code,
                            'module' => $this->title . $show_box_weight);

I think this code for ups.php and won't do anything for upsxml module.

Can somebody clarify?

look for the same line of code in the upsxml file. The code for creating the string should have not have changed. What changed was the method of getting the information and quotes from the UPS servers. I have my own version of the xml system running now as I have unique shipping issues. I still have some things to work out. I have a blogging style thread called "changing the database" if you wish to follow along.

I tried that, but it doesn't have anything similar to that.

yep, I just looked through that code and did not see anything that would create the string either.

Thank you for trying!

no problem :) just wish I could have found it. Maybe someone else more familiar with that specific module will chime in.

Did you try adjusting the setting in Admin->Configuration->Shipping/Packaging?

Display Number of Boxes and Weight Status
Display Shipping Weight and Number of Boxes?

0= off
1= Boxes Only
2= Weight Only
3= Both Boxes and Weight

Good idea, but I have already set it to "0" and both weight and # of boxes still show in UPS quotes.

Maybe this old thread might be of some value? http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=985145#post985145

Yes, Sir!

Worked great.

Replaced line 241-245 with

if (DIMENSIONS_SUPPORTED) {
$this->quotes = array('id' => $this->code, 'module' => $this->title ); //. ' (' . $this->boxCount . ($this->boxCount > 1 ? ' pkg(s), ' : ' pkg, ') . $totalWeight . ' ' . strtolower($this->unit_weight) . ' total)');
} else {
$this->quotes = array('id' => $this->code, 'module' => $this->title ); //. ' (' . $shipping_num_boxes . ($this->boxCount > 1 ? ' pkg(s) x ' : ' pkg x ') . number_format($shipping_weight,2) . ' ' . strtolower($this->unit_weight) . ' total)');
}
