texte = okay. this has me going completely nuts. In one of our stores, you can add stuff to the cart and it calculates the price, unitshipcost and tax based on the formulas database. the code that runs when you add something to your cart is as follows: [AddLineItem cart=[newcart]&sku=[sku]&db=/db/products.db]quantity=1[/AddLineItem] now, each time a user adds something to his cart i record this in a database so that, if they ever return to the site and log in again, i can ressurect the contents of any un-purchased carts. The reason i store it in the database is because the carts directories get cleared out every 1440 minutes or something... so they are not always available. the above code works fine and adds price, shipcost and tax perfectly each time. the problem i have is that when somebody returns to the site and the code runs to re-add the contents of their old cart to their new one, it completely misses the unitshipcost. here is the code that re-adds the products: [search db=/db/existing_detail.db&eqEXISTING_IDdatarq=[EXISTING_ID]&asLINE_IDsort=1& LINE_IDtype=number] [founditems] [AddLineItem cart=[newcart]&sku=[PROD_SKU]&db=/db/products.db]quantity=1[/AddLineItem] [/founditems] [/search] now i don't understand why the unitshipcost is calculated correctly and available in the first instance and not in the second. does anybody have any ideas???? ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
