Drop down box for shipping??

Hey everyone,

www.royal-fleur.com

I searched the forum but I was not successful in finding a solution to my problem.

I would like to have my shipping option on the checkout_shipping page to display in a drop down box instead of radio button.

Please take a look at my screen shot. I would like to have the list of available shipping option ( different delivery date ) to be in a drop down box instead of being on top of each other with radio button.

I tried to play with checkout_shipping but no luck since I am not a professional coder.:dontgetit

Any suggestions or hint on how to accomplish this would be great and appreciated

Thank you

Off the top of my head, I can't recall what it takes to populate/create a dropdown, but if you look at say how the attributes code handles it, then perhaps it would make it a little easier for you. I thought the dropdown just stored the array of data to be presented rather than looping through each item to display it. Been a while since having to create dropdown boxes through code and specifically in php.

Thanks for the reply. I will take a look at the attributes. Not sure how to make it work for ceon advanced shipper though.

Re: Drop down box for shipping??

What addon shipping module are you using to display the dates in the radiobutton format?

Afraid I do not use the method so I really cannot offer a solution to you ...

Perhaps you can contact the support for that addon ...

Thanks for checking though. JSWeb has been silent and not really helpful and are blaming it on zen cart.

I am not a fan of advanced shipper. My store http://www.royal-fleur.com is for a flower shop and I need to be able to offer the customer with a specific delivery date for their order.

I used order delivery date mod but I would like to use FEC for the checkout but I was unsuccessful in incorporating order delivery date mod into FEC.

Would you know the best and/or an appropriate add-on that I can use with FEC and still be able to offer a delivery date drop-down or calendar?

What are you using for shipping?

Thank you
