To just use whatever forms I already have in place to send the data? I don't really feel like having their system completely take over the look and feel I've planned out.

Eg, I have 2 shipping radio buttons: International and USA/Canada, but if I use their script it changes it to a dropdown box..

?

Sure. Just replace the shipping option code with your code.

Is that via the other pages template from Viking? I wish there was a way I could tell it what each little %whatever% tag had inside of it, instead of their default system. Is this changeable?

Sorry I'm new to Miva.

no worries. yes, that is what we are talking about right? It should be obvious. Something like %shipping% The code for shipping errors will be by it.

Alright, so how do I edit the tokens or whatever they are called? I can't find this anywhere under the other page templates.

I don't need anything crazy, I just want to have my own look - like I said for a few things. Instead of having a drop down menu for the credit cards, I'd like to have radio buttons, etc.

In the opay template. Have you read the documentation?

View the source code of the page as its rendered in a browser and replace the token for the payment options with your own radio buttons following the input examples shown in the source code.

You cannot edit the tokens themselves, they are tokens because they act as a 'macro' of sorts, and the function they serve fills in the token. This is built into the module's code.

Perfect! That's exactly what I was looking for, I wanted to just take the data from what was rendered in the browser and use those form fields instead of having to call up the template using the percentage signs. Thanks!
