You can have as many pages as you want that ask for customer information such as address1, taxRate, header1, etc. Every time you use showcart, WebCatalog looks for these variables in the form and sets the shopping cart values appropriately.Showpage allows you to display pages without needing to have a cart, as in pages that may have [randomad] or some other [html1] types of tags that are part of your site that has nothing to do with shopping.Purchase is only to be used once -- when the visitor is ready to 'commit' to the final purchase.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
