Change Currency In Cart

dataferret Total Posts: 2 Joined: 2007-09-21 Ignore user	A useful feature would be the ability for clients to change/compare currencies when in the shopping cart page or going through the checkout. It would also be great if there was a currency converter based on the default currency and exchange rate which can be toggled on/off by the user

I added this in template/checkout/cart/sidebar.phtml on line 51 `<a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=<?php echo ($this->getSubtotal()) ?>+SEK+in+EUR" target="_blank">EUR</a> : <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=<?php echo ($this->getSubtotal()) ?>+SEK+in+GBP" target="_blank">GBP</a> : <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=<?php echo ($this->getSubtotal()) ?>+SEK+in+USD" target="_blank">USD</a> : <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=<?php echo ($this->getSubtotal()) ?>+SEK+in+JPY" target="_blank">JPY</a>` I know it’s not the best thing to do, but it works. Better would be a php script that could fetch and display the currencies for the Subtotal directly.
