order total

[troutlet]

I'm trying to fill in the blank for a string to display the Order total on the /Checkout/Receipt.aspx page. This is for a tracking script that looks like:

script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">var gdf_orderTotal = '0.00';

I need to insert the correct total instead of 0.00.

I was unable to make Nvelocity code work for this and now I'm stumped. Can anybody help me get past this?

It looks like it would be this:
Order.TotalCharges

In 5.5, we used to be able to refer to it in tracking code like:
<%=Order.TotalCharges%>

Thanks Judy. I tried and it did not do it. hmmmmmmmmmmm

Well I talked with the people providing the tracking code to help, they talked to Able Commerce people over Live Chat and were told to search the forum (thanks).
At first I felt slighted but then I realized that it's not a Support contract that we have by buying AC7, it's only a software upgrade contract so it's really no fault of AC.

I admit I'm no expert on this type of thing but I've searched through existing scripts in ConLib and tried everything that even remotely resembles an order total and nothing works. I WAS able to collect the order total using Nvelocity however that page (receipt.aspx) does not support Nvelocity so that's no help at all. The total needs to appear in a javascript call.

Any thoughts?

It will pull the correct amount, but I don't know your Javascript code. I just put
<% Response.Write(Order.TotalCharges);%>
into a a visible place on the Receipt.aspx and it showed the correct order total.
Your tracking code people should be able to figure it out from there. For example, to use my old Google tracking code in an AC7 page, it would be:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var google_conversion_id = xxxxxxxxx;
var google_conversion_language = "en_US";
var google_conversion_format = "1";
var google_conversion_color = "efefef";
if (<%=objOrder.TotalCharges%>) {
var google_conversion_value = <%=Order.TotalCharges%>;
}
var google_conversion_label = "Purchase";
//-->
</script>

Thank you very much Judy that did it.
Before I was actually trying to drop this script after the Receiptpage. When I was trying

Code: Select all

<% Response.Write(Order.TotalCharges);%> 

it would not work. Once I reread your post a little more carefully I placed this WITHIN receiptpage.aspx (just like you said) and it worked perfectly. I then embedded the javascript within receiptpage as well using your google example of

Code: Select all

<%=Order.TotalCharges%>

and it worked like a charm.

You've cured a serious headache for me! thank you, thank you , thank you.
