Can the main currency be changed 'on the fly'?

[jxm28788]

In view/businesssettings/options you can change the main currency - but is there any way to do this on the fly?

Could I have two prices for each product - one main price (GBP) and a Euro price as a custom var maybe?

and then change the template to display the price either as euro (customervar) or gbp depending on a specific variable? and the checkout would pass the correct figure in the correct currency to the PSP (on a multi currency account)...?

Or is there a simpler way?

Has anyone found a good method of having dual currencies (not just displayed, but actually charging in that currency as well)?

Pop over to www.drillpine.biz and have a look at Norman's Actinic stuff. He either tells you how you can do this, or sells a package that does it - can't remember which

[jxm28788]

already looked, it can't do this.

Although the billing etc is still done in the base currency Norman's Norprice will change the secondary currency automatically across the site. You can see it here:
