Was: Variables not being passed *back*

numero = 33972
interpreted = N
texte = My site still breaks. If a customer transposes a couple of credit card numbers or forgets to enter their phone number, their cart gets trashed. Not because cart=[cart] isn't being passed -- it knows what they ordered -- it just tosses things like Quantity, ShipToState (and, therefore, TaxRate).These pages are functionally identical to Tea Room pages. As you might expect, the Tea Room pages have exactly the same problem. Now, sure, the Tea Room example is just that -- an example -- but shouldn't it work?!? I understand that we're supposed to learn from it, but it's broken.I've now made it so that the whole site is secure, so there is no more passing between http and https. This doesn't fix the problem, obviously. I've tried passing the values forward to the ThankYou.tpl page, so that rather than going back, they can just fix them in place, then re-submit the page to itself. No better. Quantities still reset to 1 in all cases, and NS or NB become __ShipToState. This at least tells me that the browser isn't what's breaking it.-- Regards,Christopher Mackay, Multimedia Developer Tantramar Interactive, http://www.tantramar.com/ 506/364-1097 cell: 364-7659 fax: 536-2409------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
