[thelist] JS Currency Conversion

Hi Noah,


How about setting up an admin page to let your client update "currency
conversion" in a {single} row table in your Access database?

Your ASP pages could pull that value into a session variable and/or write it
into the JavaScript on-the-fly.

Actually, I think I'd recommend putting your product list and the rest of
your information in database tables as well ... in the long run it should
offer you a more flexible solution than hard-coding.

[I just did some 'currency conversion' reporting recently, and because I
needed _many_ currencies with conversion rates that were regularly updated -
the database solution worked pretty good for me.]

HTH,

RonL.

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to get a currency 
multiplier that can be used in JS in several pages, and that can be updated 
from a web form. I have access to ASP and Access on the server, but I'd 
really like to try to do this in JS, if possible.
