If it has, you redirect to the current page and assign a new cart. Make sure that any cart that has been spidered is already in the orders database.If your site design used session cookies to store the cart, you'd never have this problem with spiders like Google again (since they won't track the cookies).John-- John PeacockDirector of Information Research and TechnologyRowman & Littlefield Publishing Group4501 Forbes BoulevardSuite HLanham, MD 20706301-459-3366 x.5010fax 301-429-5748-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
