[AlertPay+osCommerce] Resolve AlertPay Payment Module Error – ap_shipping charges field must be numeric

While setting up AlertPay Payment module in a osCommerce Store, I encountered following error “ap_shippingcharges field must be numeric” during a test purchase.

To fix this error, open catalog/includes/modules/payment/alertpay.php

Find this:

tep_draw_hidden_field('ap_shippingcharges', $order->info['shipping_cost']) .

Replace with this:

tep_draw_hidden_field('ap_shippingcharges', number_format($order->info['shipping_cost'], 2, '.', '')) .

I have also updated the AlertPay contribution on osCommerce website here.

Hope that helps.

Cheers!
