I am beginning to think I have to come up with a site entry page, though I would rather not. What I have happening is this. The customer comes to the site and loads essentially 2 frames, left.tmpl and main.html. The left is the navigational menu, from this menu you can do either a quicksearch, an extended search, or a picture view of the catalog. All of which are viewed in the main.html frame. I have in my index.html the following code: Again keep in mind this is the index/entry page there is no other entry page.When I load the search pages in the main frame, I am assigned a Cart number. The code for calling up these pages looks like so: Once loaded into the 'main' the search page has a defined 'cart' and as long as I follow links inside the 'main' I am fine. If I go back to the left.tmpl and choose quicksearch, I am assigned a new cart. I have tried the following code for my left.tmplBut then the cart assigned, literally becomes [cart] and no other carts can be established.Am I missing something or should I break down and create an entry page?
