texte = I'm racking my brain on this one:The site we are building currently is for a record shop whose catalogs consist of:(1) A general collection of used vinyl, (2) used classical, (3 and 4 and maybe more) new CD catalogs imported from CD rom.Here's the problem. I want to be able to add items to my cart from any catalog database. How can I do a showcart for a cart than spans more than one database?I don't want to combine the databases--the used catalogs need to have items removed when ordered because each item is unique, and will also have items added remotely three or four times a week.The CD rom databases will be updated in one fell swoop, and because they are new, orders will not delete them from the database, because the orders will drop ship from a distributor.Any thoughts?
