Power Store and ECart Postage

Hi,
Can you please let me know how to add the following dropdown list onto the products_detail.php so the customer will be able to select their location and pay the correct postage when they checkout?
I use the PowerStore but at the same time I have an E-Cart which I have never used before.
------------------------------------------
<label for="Shipping">Shipping</label>
<select name="Shipping" id="Shipping">
<option value="0">Post to UK</option>
<option value="3">Post to USA</option>
<option value="2">Post to EU</option>
</select>
------------------------------------------
looking forward for your instructions.
Thanks

there is no need to add that.

the checkout page has a select list already in place for the user to chose the shipping country.

in the power store admin, you can set shipping rates for the different countries that can be selected for the shipping country.

Thanks,
I have set the shipping settings but there is no menu on my products_detail.php or cart.php.
Can you please help me?

I have just noticed a '>' at the top left corner of the page.

I did further research and when I tried to upload the:
index.dwt.php page I received the following error:
Fatal error: Class 'WA_Include' not found in www/webassist/themes/FolderName/plugins/plugins.php on line 5
I restore a previous version of the plugin.php but this didn't fixed the error.

Can you please let me know how to fix this problem as this may be the cause of the shipping problem?

Thanks

sounds like your copy of the index.dwt.php page has become corrupted. download a new copy of the power store files to replace the index.dwt.php page with a fresh one.

the shipping selecting will not show on the products detail or cart pages, it will show on the confirm page.

Hi the '>' is now fixed but my shipping charges still don't work.
I have completed a full transaction but I was not charged postage.
Can you please have a look and let me know how this can be solved?
Thanks

The Shipping is based on weight, make sure that the products in your catalog have a weight set, if no weight is set for the products, the shipping will not be applied.
