Javascript for each certain amount, increase variable

Hi there,

I am needing to calculate shipping in a website I am writing. Each item we sell has a maxshipping variable which shows how many of that item can be shipped before the items shipping cost is increased.

E.g.
An item has a shipping cost of $0.60 for up to 10 of the items... After that 10 I want to increase it by another $0.60... then so forth for each 10 items.

How do I go about doing this?

Thanks,
Jessee

so you mean to say for 10 items its $0.60
now if it have only one item it would be also $0.60 right ?
please confirm.

If yes please copy below code and save it as "test.html".

<script type="text/javascript">

function bridedress()
{
      var item_no =25;
      var cost = 0.60;
      var quantity =10;
      var extra = 0;
      var item = 0;
      var totalprice =0 ;
      var extraitem =0 ;

      extraitem = (item_no%quantity);
      item = Math.floor(item_no/quantity);
      if(extraitem < quantity)
      {
       extra = 1;// to keep additional item less than 10 as 1 unit or quantity
      }
      totalprice = (item*cost)+(extra*cost);
      alert(totalprice)
      alert(item)
      alert(extra*cost)

}

</script>
</head>

<body>
<a href="javascript:bridedress()">lovetomarry</a>
</body>
</html>

Hi there,

Yes.
1 - 10 items = 0.60
11 - 20 items = 1.20 etc etc...

Will try this code and get back to you.

Hey there,

The maxshipping changes with each item. Sometimes only 2 items can be sent for 0.60... other times 10 items can be. How do I include that?

Thanks,
Jessee

Did you try it? If you add 1 through 10 in the qty box, it will be 60 cents. If you use 11 through 20 it will be 1.20.

Works like a charm. Just needed to put the maxshipping in where the /10 was.

Thank you!

Hi @Letsgetcoding
For 25 it has to 1.80 right?
