Session only works with cart links

[dogznbonz]

I have a situation with a site that has really got me confused. I'm using STS template and I have several sites that work fine. This one particular site will only carry session ids on the cart links that oscommerce has by default, but not the links I hand code.

 

the site I'm talking about is http://www.expressionswholesale.com

 

The rollover links don't carry sessions neither do the text links I have coded

 

Please don't try to email me at the site expressionswholesale.com

 

Any help will be great! :huh:

 

Thanks!

and how exactly do you code your custom links ?

I figured out what the solution to this problem is. I have several sites that are working and a couple that were not. I figured out that the ones that were not working are with a different hosting company.

 

 

The way I fixed is I added some code to the includes/application_top.php as well as the application_bottom.php

 

The next thing I did was add "?$sid" without the quotes to the end of each link that was not passing session ids. For example index.php would have to be index.php?$sid

 

Everything is now working great.

 

If you would like the two files includes/application_top.php as well as the application_bottom.php let me know and I'll be happy to e-mail them to you. :thumbsup:

all you need to do is use the tep_href_link() function like the default osc links do.

This worked like a charm for me. If anyone knows of a disadvantage to doing this please post.

Do you have an example of how to go about this?
