update shipping with ajax

[nicole.arnold]

Is there a way to update the cart totals when a customer chooses a different shipping method using ajax, similar to how the tax updates when a customer changes the state/zip?

I can do it by submitting just the shipping_form with an onclick call on the radio button, but it reloads the page, obviously.

How can I do this so that the page doesn't reload?

I'm happy to be able to say that this feature will become available in our next major software update: MMv4.

In version 4, selecting a shipping method updates the order grand total displayed on the page, just as you described.

"And how is the MMv4 update coming along?" You may ask? Status updates posted by our development team and other news about the release of version 4 are posted in these locations:

I hope this information is helpful. Let us know if there's anything else that we can assist you with.
