Currency Conversion sample I want to duplcate

zzzmuzz · #1 05-12-2009, 06:53 AM

I have looked at a range of currency conversion tools but all those I have seen seem too complex, or don't do what I want. A really nice example is on the abebooks site.. eg when you click on "convert currency" under a price on this page you get a very nice popup. Great. Now, how to get something similar (for free of course!)

Someone must be using something similar somewhere?

The Currency Converter tutorial describes a number of tasks that are common to ... However, you may want to consult the Cocoa tutorial before ..... Or, you can use Interface Builder's Duplicate command to ..... If you haven't already done so, build and experiment with some of the sample applications

Thanks both. I have checked out and downloaded many different possibilities but not found anything ideal yet. I have not however, evaluated a range of scripts available. I'm not a programmer, but can probably work my way through them.

Thanks both - the yourcurrencyconverter looks to do pretty much what I want. I just have a slight problem in how to place the script they provide where they ask for it.

Place this script tag immediately before the </body> tag of your web page.

How would I do this? ie place it exactly where they ask. Should have mentioned I am using Blue Voda for this site.

thanks

Hi

You can use the free XE.com Currency Convertor easily by placing a hyperlink on your page http://www.xe.com/pca/input.php

Thanks but I am already using that on www.arthurporritt.com

I wanted to do something a bit more sophisticated with a currency conversion for each price. I just wanted to know how to insert the appropriate code (which I have) immediately before the /body tag.

Youd place it in PAGE HTML in the END OF BODY tab
