Currency selector module

[scheng924]

So I seem to be running into a problem. I'm trying to locate the php file that allows me to change how the price is being shown onto the page. THis is my problem.. I have USD and CAD set up, on CAD, the product page shows ...

Price: CAD $9.99

However, once I change the selection to USD... it shows

Price: CAD USD9.99

I'm trying to find the option in the admin panel or php code to change it, can someone point me to the right file?

Thanks

Just go to root/cache/"daily.xml",
and edit the rate for what u want!

Then go to admin panel

Hi,
I did the above but I get the following error and the price of the items are the same no matter what currency I change them to.

Error: Failed to connect to 216.220.38.24: Permission denied
Error: Failed to connect to 216.220.38.24: Permission denied
Error: Failed to connect to 216.220.38.24: Permission denied

The above works the same as convertXE.php?

Thanks.
Ming
