These pages are 99 44/100% right out of the examples. >Formatting and colors have changed, and the email addresses in the >fulfillment.txt file, but nothing else.It all depends on what context you're in. For instance, hitting a page with command=ShowCart (or Purchase) wraps the entire page inside the equivalent of an [OrderFile] context, which makes it so that anywhere on that page you can access orderfile information like all the headers and the LineItems.However, if you just hit a page with no ShowCart, then it's not 'in the context of' an order file, and all those header variables and lineitems are meaningless, because WebCatalog has no idea which cart you intend to get information from.If you borrowed from the examples, and they work OK, then it's time to look closely at the differences between your pages and the examples. You've probably moved some of your email stuff outside the context where orderfile information would be meaningful.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/
