The way HTML works, you don't get to see the values of checkboxes until the *next* page. Just clicking a checkbox on and off doesn't cause any WebDNA or anything else to execute. That's because at that point everything is happening on the local user's home computer. You need to submit a form before the web server can see what form variables have been set.So go ahead and put your checkboxes on the page as you suggested, then on your ShoppingCart page put the [AddLineItem] stuff at the top:-- ShoppingCart.tpl -- HTML header stuff[Showif SomethingImportant] [AddLineItem db=xx&cart=[cart]&sku=[CheckedSKU]]quantity=1&sku=[CheckedSKU][/AddLineItem] [/ShowIf]...by this point, the items have been added, so now you want to display the contents of the order file...[OrderFile cart=[cart]] . . . [LineItems] ... [/LineItems] [/OrderFile]Grant Hulbert, V.P.
