DHL

Are any of you using DHL for shipping.
I'm always having to check up on the status of a delivery which can be a really cumbersome process:
view orders-> customer -> login as customer -> account -> order status -> view order status - dhl tracking page
I did a quick hack to add the view order status link to the view orders page but even that is a pain so I've taken it a step further.
Note this only works if you only use one shipper at the moment.
Using a php to parse the DHL tracking page and some simple JQuery the status shows up nicely after a simple button click
If anyone is interested in the code let me know and I'll send it accross.
It's hardly a super streamlined code but it works for me!
