That's where your interpretation of the cart value is wrong.The [cart] tag generates a unique *character string* which just happens to be made up of numeric characters. And while this string of characters is always alphabetically greater than the last value the [cart] tag generated, you cannot assume that it is also going to be numerically greater than the last value generated, because as you have seen it just doesn't work that way ... :) ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
