texte = Before you can do anything useful with the webdna language, you FIRST have to learn HTML. From your response below, it seems you do not understand one of the most basic HTML concepts -- how to put together an HTML form.This is not a cut against your lack of HTML knowledge, because everyone is at a different level when it comes to knowing HTML. However, until you learn enough about HTML to understand what someone means when they says There's no tag in this form... you will continue to find it extremely hard-going when it comes to writing webdna code.>I appreciate your help very much but did I mention that I'm not a >webdna programmer? >With that in mind, where might one stick this magic solution so that >it would actually >work? > >Kenneth Grome wrote: > >> There's no tag in this >> form -- which of course means it could not possibly be passing a cart >> value to the next page -- and that's why you're losing the cart value. >> >> >Here ya go....of course I'm only assuming this is where the problem >> >is coming from >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> >[hideif [url][formvariables name=--&exact=F][name][/formvariables][/url]=] >> >Search Results
