I'm just wondering if anyone has worked with integration of FedEx and UPS API's to calculate the shipping cost of items.
I was thinking of using DIV tags to encompass the Drop Down select list, with show / hide performed by CSS based off of which shipping carrier is selected.
Obviously the API would need to have certain variables defined, as well as certain data supplied in order for it to function.
Defined Variables:
Shipper Location
Data Supplied:
Item Weight
Item Dimensions
Receiver Location
Shipping Method (Ground, 2nd Day, Next Day, Overnight etc)
I took a look at the FedEx API and it looks a wee bit complex to integrate.
Anyone have code snippets they've used, tips, tricks, or thoughts on the matter?

Hi,
The best thing to do would be to choose the API you want to use and get it working. Once that's straightened out, you can work show/hide functionality. If you need help with the API integration, we can assist you through our consulting service. If you're interesting in doing this, please send an email to consulting@interactivetools.com
Hope this helps
