Hi :)

I am looking for a competent coder to help me with a shipping module
for an e-commerce project I am working on. Essentially I need a script
that can check a Canadian postal code and/or US zip code (from the
cart) against a flat-file or db table, find it's zone in a series of
ranges of codes, grab the correct value for the weight of the products
in the cart, and pass it back to the cart. The cart I am working with
is Zen-Cart. I am not looking for a freebie.

For example, my postal code might be: P1B 7E9
The zone chart uses the 1st 3 chars, and looks something like:
Range Zone
A0A-A0N 11
G6E-G6K 5
J5Y-J6A 4
R5A-R6W 8
T9E 6
A1A-A1S 11
G6L-G6T 5
J6E 4
R7A-R7C 7
T9G 9
A1V-A2N 11

Then there's a weight/price ratio for each zone.


If I really have to, I'll tackle this myself, but I'd rather contract
it out and invest my own time elsewhere. If you have the skills to do
this, and are interested and available, please contact me off-list.

Thanks,
verdon
