Saving Text Areas with Orders

texte = My customers require being able to write a few lines of comment to be attached to their orders. After they see the cart, they will need to write their comments in a TEXTAREA. Where do I save this? If they decide to go back to add or edit the order, I don't want these comments to be lost. I have thought about creating a comments SKU, and using [hideif] to keep it from being listed out with [lineitems]. I am unsure if a TEXTAREA could be held inside of textB, even if I set the WRAP attribute to VIRTUAL My other idea was to create a db with cart numbers and comments, but I don't thing that would help me if someone pressed the back button on the browser, and then changed their order, instead of Submitting the form. And I'm not sure how a TEXTAREA would be saved. I have hacked away at this for some time today, and RTFM'd with the O'Reilly HTML book, but no answer was apparent. I would appreciate any time-saving advice.Thanks.Larry Orchier Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
