It keeps the original formatting. numero = 39067
interpreted = N
texte = Try the syntax [waitforfile file=ShoppingCarts/[cart]] - you need the file=...I'm not sure what you're expecting though... the [movefile] completes it's task immediately - before moving on to the next statement - so there should never be any waiting necessary. Assuming the WebMerchant/Problems/[cart] file existed when the code was called, ShoppingCarts/[cart] will exist before you get to the [waitforfile].What the [redirect] does is generate a command for the browser asking it to load a different page. Any WebDNA prior to a [redirect] will be executed first. Anything after a redirect will generally not be executed.- brianAt 3:32 PM 10/3/2001, Josh Lynn wrote:>I'm using the following code to re-create the shopping cart in the event of>a problem (mac g4 web* 4.x):>>[movefile from=WebMerchant/Problems/[cart]&to=ShoppingCarts/[cart]]>[deletefile file=WebMerchant/Problems/[cart]]>[deletefile file=WebMerchant/WebDelivery/[cart].tpl]>[deletefile file=WebMerchant/CompletedOrders/[cart]]>>[waitforfile ShoppingCarts/[cart]]>[redirect url=payment.tpl?cart=[cart]&command=showcart&db=../db/products.db]>[/waitforfile]>>the waitforfile doesn't seem to be working, is that becuase redirect happens>regardless of WaitForFile, or am I experiencing other problems? anyone have>an idea?>>thanks>-josh-- <= Brian C.
