There is a keyboard command in most browsers that is *supposed* to force the browser to reload from the server instead of retrieving it from cache. The super reload, as it were. Try that when you run into duplicate carts. That doesn't help the average web site customer, nor is it feasable to ask all your customers to set their cache preferences to always, but as the programmer of your own site, it makes more sense than restarting the server.Mike ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
