Hi Mark,

Thanks for the response. That is a workaround that I know I could use, although it becomes a pain to 
manage if you have to change the calculation in several places everytime you change a discount.

[item-discount-price] should be available for use on the flypage and results. It makes sense for it 
to work, otherwise customers wont know they are buying discounted items until they reach the 
cart/checkout. Theres no point having discounts if the customers dont see the discounted price while 
browsing the site.

Mat
