interpreted = N
texte = Yes. Ken and John Reginald - this is the same thing I am experiencing. Ken he means to say that instead of getting the real value for 'taxTotal' he is getting [taxTotal]. John that does not mean webcat has not evaluated the page. It has, it just thinks there is no cart associated with this page (its cart number references a non-existing cart file) so taxtotal has no value. What Ken meant was if you got '[Search db=mpdb/...] and other webcat code in your pages.Everyone who is running their stores on web* and can view with IE5 (and possible lower) on the mac (plus maybe others) try going forward and backward on your secure pages and see what you get.Has anyone licked this? Ken you say we just need to send certain http headers? Can you give a hint for those of us who read the docs on [setmimeheader] and skipped on feeling that was for another day... maybe this is the day?
