When they try and use a bookmarked page with a cart, check to see if the cart already exists in the order.db, then show them bits of the user contact info and say Is this you? If it is, assign them a new cart and insert their contact information in the headers (and add the line item). If it isn't, just give them a new cart (though I would send an e-mail to myself to warn me that some outside cache was keeping cart info).HTHJohn-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
