in reply to Template toolkit Adding Values to Variable

Could it be that there is something wrong with the Perl-script that stuffs data in the TT-variables?

Have you checked what is in information.QTY and information.PRICE? Or perhaps shopping is zero or empty or undef and the loop doesn't run?

Does TT know the += operator (as in [% totalprice += ff %]? Have you tried [% totalprice = totalprice + ff %]? (Sorry, I cannot check on the computer I am writing this on).

Update: Added question on += operator

    Thanks for reply,

    everything runs perfect except for the updating the [% totalprice %] variable. seem like [% totalprice   %] is reset or become private varible when it is inside the [% FOREACH %]. it is just creating global variable which can update or value can be pushed in it.

    regards.
