texte = I am evaluating WebCatalog on the Mac platform.I have taken the TeaRoom example and entered my own data, no (major) change to the underlying HTML or PCS or DNA code.The information is the InvoiceInfo.txt (Billing, Shipping, and Payment information - entered by a potential customer) is not carried over from the Invoice.tmpl to the ThankYou.tmpl.My question is: Why not? What need to be done to transfer these critical pieces of information? Can someone provide a code example?On another note - feedback to StarNine or Pacific Coast - the documentation that I have does not jive with the examples provided. The examples that I have a not (a prior incarnation?) and there other discrepancies.Also none of the examples have worked properly out of the box. They all required some level of intervention to get it to work (As exampled by my problem referenced above). When you are starting off on new software with a new language(?) and you are hoping to learn by example(s) - when the examples don't work out of the box - you begin to wonder what else doesn't work....Thank you in advance for your prompt response to my question above...:-) Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
