I have made some progress on this:
the item price was only $0.01 so the only tax added would have been for the shipping amount + 0.01.
SO...I have set up an item priced at $10.99 and the cart will show the correct taxes on this amount when logged in as a Canadian customer.
BUT
does not add tax to the shipping amount which is required in Ontario Canada.
in an attempt to fix this (Newbie at code editing) I found these rules (below) described in the WA_Store_Cart_PHP.php page and changed the false statement to true with no improvement.
The cart is still charging tax only on the item subtotal but I need to charge taxes on the total price including shipping.
function DefineRules() {
$this->Discounts = array();
$this->Charges = array();
$this->Tax = array();
$this->Shipping = array();
$this->ShippingIsTaxed = false;
I have changed this last statement to:
$this->ShippingIsTaxed = true;
and uploaded the WA_eCart directory to the server. cleared the browser cache and even tried another browser with no luck.
any ideas?
thank,
Nancy
