Re: duplicate cart numbers
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2002
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 45357
interpreted = N
texte = Actually all generated cart numbers are unique, problems only arise when people follow bookmarks with the cart stored in them. I don't like how webdna handles such occurrences and so I wrote the routine to take care of those situations so I could avoid the ugly errors that webdna produces by default. The cart number is a machination of the date and time along with other factors and so is unique by default. If you still want the other code bits I can share, but its fairly simple to check and use your own database names, filenames etc.ie: start final check out test for duplicate ip if duplicate then got to cartcleaner.tpl?file=[cart] on the cartcleaner page copy data from [file] to [cart] redirect to invoice.tpl?cart=[cart] else redirect to invoice.tpl?cart=[cart] end if On Sunday, November 17, 2002, at 01:45 AM, catalogs wrote:> are you checking then if there is a duplicate, it randomizes again and > double checks, then loops until clear. > > can I get the code from you?
