Three [random]'s? What do the x's represent?I tried using a [redirect], but this doesn't work, either. I created a redirect page that contains [redirect Default.tpl] and changed the name of Default.html to Default.tpl (and put the Has WebDNA thing on it).On the ThankYou.tpl page, I changed the link back to the Default.tpl page to Start a New Shopping TripSupposedly, this will take users from the ThankYou.tpl page to the redirect.tpl page which does not pass a cart number as it takes the user back to Default.tpl. Alas, the duplicate cart number does show up again.I also read in the list archives about using a database to check to see if a cart number has already been used, but even if I find that it has, how do I get it out of cache and replace it with a unique number?Shucks (or something like that.)Glenn ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
