Re: Setting Cart value

texte = All of our pages include the CartCookie.inc file. Anytime a cart value needs to be used it is listed as cart=[cartfromcookie] (usually as a form value). It means that very few of our pages contain any command line options, and I hope to use POST forms for everything I can at some point. It makes for a very clean looking site; see http://www.rowmanlittlefield.com http://www.univpress.com http://www.scarecrowpress.comfor examples of the power of WebCat. All of those sites are exactly the same code (except for some site specific sections like What's New). Only with WebCat could I run multiple sites using exactly the same templates.John PeacockMike Davis wrote: > > The problem is that Mark was trying to set a variable named CART, and not > cartfromcookie.
