Ugh this is getting frustrating:

Try this:

function do_discount() 
{ 
var total_ordered = parseFloat(document.get_data.number_ordered.value); 
alert(total_ordered);
if(total_ordered >= 0 && total_ordered < 24) 
{ 
unitprice = 545000; 
} 
else if(total_ordered >= 24 && total_ordered < 48) 
{ 
unitprice = 540000;
} 
else if(total_ordered >= 48 && total_ordered < 72) 
{ 
unitprice = 535000;
} 
else if(total_ordered >= 72 && total_ordered < 200) 
{ 
unitprice = 530000;
} 
total_price = unitprice * total_ordered;
document.get_data.answer.value=total_price; 
}

hmm it seems to me that the new code you posted does:

Quantity * Base Price - X

instead of

Quantity * Base Price - X * Quantity

dk01 — Thu, 09 May 2002 12:08:35 +0000

ok then you should do this:
function do_discount()
{

var total_ordered = parseFloat(document.get_data.number_ordered.value);
var cost = parseFloat(document.get_data.cost.value);
var total_cost = total_ordered * cost;

if(total_ordered>=0 && total_ordered <23)
{
total_cost=total_cost-0;
}
else if(total_ordered>=24 && total_ordered <47)
{
total_cost=total_cost-5000;
}
else if(total_ordered>=48 && total_ordered <71)
{
total_cost=total_cost-10000);
}
else if(total_ordered>=72 && total_ordered <200)
{
total_cost=total_cost-15000;
}
document.get_data.answer.value=total_cost;
}

But I want the base cost to be 545000.

< 23 Price = 545000
24 < 47 Price = 540000
48 < 71 Price = 535000
72 > Price = 530000

See?

dk01 — Thu, 09 May 2002 10:14:13 +0000

Yes I can see that. But according to your code that is the correct answer because you have the cost (The value of the hidden feild cost) actually set to 545000. If you go to your html code and find the hidden feild called 'cost' you will see its value is 545000. If you change this yo 540000 then you should get the right answer.

I meant per ship.

Type in 47 and you'll see that you get 2561500 which is 47*545000 not 47*540000

dk01 — Wed, 08 May 2002 19:04:01 +0000

Ok I am not sure which of the promblems you are experiencing but depending on what you are trying to do it could be either of them.

Either:

You possibly typed in the wrong cost. If you look at your cost feild in the html you will see that its value is set to 545000.

or:

You are possibly looking at the code wrong. Lets look at this section:

else if(total_ordered>=24 && total_ordered <47) 
{ 
total_cost=total_cost-(5000*total_ordered); 
} 

'This code says 'if the order quantity is between 24 and 47 then multiply the quantity by 5000 and subtract it from the original cost of the order [ total_cost = 25615000-(5000*47) ].
The reason I wrote that was because in you original post you said you wanted to subtract 5000 per ship that was purchased. Is this what you meant or did you mean that it would just be a 5000 discount on the total price?
