Does anyone know how to get time in transit for ground using this script? The script uses Rate Available Services and I guess that using Service Availability gives you transit time.

if you call

$price = $fedex->getPrice();

then you will be able to print rate

echo $price->price->rate;

Martin
Have you found an answer? I’m in the same boat.

Also the the publisher the change for the ground issue doesn’t work while in test. Is it just the test mode problem?

Thanks

Nick

Hello Algirdas,

first of all many thanks that you share your skills with us!
It´s my first time I shall intergrate the FedEx Rate Modul in a selfmade shopping cart.
My question:
How can I use the variables from the price object as single output?
I only need the “rate” and the “service”, so I build these request at the end of index.php.

foreach($price as $wert) {
if(is_object($wert)){
foreach($wert as $eintrag) {
if(is_object($eintrag) || is_array($eintrag)){
echo ”;
}
else {
echo $eintrag.”;
}
}
}
}

At the end of fedex.php I changed “print_r($this);” into “return $this;”.

It´s my first time I work with classes and objects, so it´s difficult for me to understand the complete script.

Hope you can help me.

Thank you and best regards,
Martin

The script looks great, but I was wondering how you go about submitting the request to get your meter number?

Genius! Sorry about that, I set it properly in the class, just not in the page calling the class.

Look at comment above
You are trying to get rates for ground service but carrier code is set to express, so you should use $fedex->setCarrierCode(“FDXG”); and everything will be ok.
