Thank you for the reply balinor. I am trying to get the default shipping carrier displayed on the shipping/checkout page to display other carriers AKA "USPS" first instead of UPS so my less observant customers would not automatically select shipping from UPS. I could just turn off UPS but I do want to give customers the option of being charged extra for their shipping.
I do see the position boxes but they are for the position of individual shipping methods. I would like to find the .tpl file withe the decision code. I am thinking I could also just display them all I only have 10 methods.
