cart number tracking

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

1998


It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 19949
interpreted = N
texte = I had run into a problem where I have two servers, and users will browse web pages on one server, and use web catalog on the other, and the [cart] number thats generated by web catalog of course will be lost, thus loosing the users cart and items if they browse the other server at that point.I solved this by using the additem context, and using ipaddress instead of the [cart] tag to specify the cart. I didnt want to use cookies, because not everyone wants cookies.So I have the basic system working, EXCEPT, after the user checks out, and is all done, if they start browsing again, and add items to their cart, when they get to the check out stage again, they get an error that their order has already been submitted!! The file with their ip address is in the Orders and ShoppingCarts folders!I tried fixing this by putting in my Thankyou.tpl file a [movefile] command, and it appears to actually move the file, BUT, the files still are in the Orders and ShoppingCarts folders, so the error still happens. I beleive the docs say the originals should be deleted. Any ideas?Im open to whole new ideas.... any help greatly appriciated!!Thanks, Scott Szretter - EES Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
