I think [cart] alone is sufficient. It is not based on a statistical probability of uniqueness; it is truly unique per machine.Technical Support **********************************Smith Micro, Internet Solutions Div | eCommerce (WebCatalog)16855 West Bernardo Drive, #380 | -------------------------San Diego, CA 92127 | Software & Site DevelopmentWebCatalog Support: (858) 675-0632 | http://www.smithmicro.com Fax: (858) 675-0372 **********************************-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
