Bug? I don't know...

texte = Mac WebCat 3.04b3 PI (dating back to 2.1)Here's something that I've never been able to reproduce, but happens evey once in a while. I can't confirm it's a bug, but if you (PCS) are in the area of the code that does this, can you look it over?Every once in a while, the credit card number (or a part of it) is added to the email field in the cart file. So, the EMAIL field might read michaelw@dhorse.com54241111 instead of michaelw@dhorse.com. It might very well be user error (soemone typing in the CC# in their email field) but I doubt it since it only happens with that one field (no one has ever typed part of their address right after their name).The formvariables that submit this information are *not* concurrent. I've put several dummy variables in between as padding. In addition, the EMAIL info is actually added to the cart file on a different page than the ACCOUNTNUM. I feel that this has eliminated any strange browser errors that might cause this.It has also occurred to me that it could be WebMerchant (2.1) incorrectly sending back info from MacAuthorize, since I've only seen this error on completed, approved orders. It has nothing to do with low memory conditions in Web* SSL, or high traffic, or heavy load.It's too weird, and I can't pin it down. Maybe someone else has seen something similar?MichaelMichael Winston *By e-mail!: michaelw@dhorse.com Senior Web Developer *By web!: http://www.dhorse.com/ Dark Horse Comics, Inc. *By fax!: 503/654/9440
