texte = Hi all! So far I have been using cart=[ipaddress] to keep track of customer shopping carts. I am considering switching to setting cookies instead since the [ipaddress] does not work well for some aol users or webTV. Are there any problems that I should keep in mind when switching to using cookies? Would someone have the code already worked out for when customers add an item to their cart that would: -check to see if a cookie has already been assigned -if not, assign one -then use the new or already-existing cookie to define the cartWhat about cookies and WebTV? Can WebTV users accept cookies?Any comments would be helpful. Thank you, Mike Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
