texte = Ken,Thanks for your help. I hate to sound stupid (wouldn't be the first time) but, when you say in the following page what do you mean? I grab the data on the page addData.tpl the page that they get returned to them is thanks.tpl. Is this the one that has the [append] context? ie. I just pass the values from the form (addData.tpl) to (thanks.tpl) and thanks.tpl does the [append] to the databse of all the data from the form + the SKU.I hope this is what you meant. I will try it out and see if it works for me.Another person on the list suggested using the [replace] context. What do you think about that?
