Custom Shipping Fields

Postby Wezza007 » Fri Aug 01, 2008 1:24 am

I would like to add a field in my shipping page which asks the user who referred them to us. What is the best way to do this?

I can see that there are some customer HTML tags, but can someone please tell me how I can use these?

[-- SHIP_CustomHTML 3 --]

I'd be happy with just a question "How did you find us?" with a field for customers to enter their response. Even better I would like a drop down box with options on possible ways they found us.

Any suggestions on how to do this would be appreciated.
Goodbye Agassi!
