texte = >The built in options in Webcatalog for add to cart are 1) take the >customer to the shopping cart (checkout.tpl), or 2) take them back >to the home page (default.tpl). > >Anyone know of a way to keep the customer on the current page and >display a little item has been added to cart' message?Of course, I do it all the time. In fact, I display the entire contents of the shopping cart at the bottom of every page. Here's how:Put all your cart processing and cart display code into an include file, with the processing code at the top and the display code at the bottom. Then include that file at the bottom of every page. The visitor can then review the contents of his/her cart immediate, at any time, simply by scrolling to the bottom of the page. Saves a lot of server hits this way, and gives the visitor a lot more convenience too.
