The [title] tag (or >context?) doesn't return anything.[Title] is not one of the lineitem variables available in an order file. There are, however, 5 extra text fields you can use for any purpose: textA-E.When you $Add something to the shopping cart, you need to add a hidden form variable that will set textA=[Title], and then in your email you can display [textA] instead.Look in the docs for [LineItems], [OrderFile], and File Formats/Order File to see what things are available where.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
