But in your example there >>are 300 computers sharing the same ip address, and that's where your >>problems lie ...Actually, that is the same understanding I had, I just worded my question poorly. The cart is set *by webcat* upon the first visit to a page with cart=[cart] is what I meant to say. I was trying to prove to myself that two browsers from the same ip could request the same page and recieve two separate and unique cart values. I believe that my temporary confusion was in not separating the IP address from the IP protocol, which is where the packet sorting gets done to allow this to function.Thanks again, Mike
