After further review of the problem, and readying through these forums, i have figured out that it is related to the php version im using. I have messed around with different versions and have got it to work on my Mac G5, but it stopped working on an xp pro system. So any imput on what imd oign wrong, or what hte optimal version of php to use, or how to tweek to make it work.

 

Thanks

can you describe the problem in terms of files a bit? so the shopping_cart.php is ok but the checkout_confirmation.php does not show the items? what happens if you go back to the cart contents from the confirmation page? the items re-appear?

thanks for the quick reply.

 

Interestingly enough, as i was testing some more I realised that the problem only occurs when you click Buy now! but not when u go to product description and then click add to cart, Basicly when you click buy now! it takes you to your shopping cart, and sais ur shopping cart is empty.

 

Thanks again

Dont Quote me on this? But there is a mod you do ? dont ask me where to look as I cant remember back that far,but when you have Zero store onhand in your database and the customer proceeds to purchase anyway they are unable to complete the check out process returning an empty cart.

hm, ive been searching forums and bug reports for days now. Cant seem to find the solution, but i think i found the problem, it seems that clickinb buy now doesnt work, but going into product info and then clicking add to cart does work. I figure this is because some sort of mod i installed, and never noticed the problem until to late. How cna i go about changing the way the buy now function works and make it similar to the add to cart function.

 

Thanks again

can you post the lines of code from the "buy now" button? Should be in one of the listing files. (dont post the entire file)

// performed by the 'buy now' button in product listings and review page

case 'buy_now' : if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])) {

if (tep_has_product_attributes($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])) {

tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id']));

} else {

$cart->add_cart($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'], $cart->get_quantity($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])+1);

}

 

this in application_top.php, im thinking thats it, not sure how to go about fixing it.

that part should be ok as far I can see.

 

With the default core when you click a category that has products it loads the product_listing.php from the modules subdir. In there (near the end) there is a case statement like this:

 

          case 'PRODUCT_LIST_BUY_NOW':
           $lc_align = 'center';
           $lc_text = '<a href="' . tep_href_link(basename($PHP_SELF), tep_get_all_get_params(array('action')) . 'action=buy_now&products_id=' . $listing['products_id']) . '">' . tep_image_button('button_buy_now.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_BUY_NOW) . '</a> ';
           break;

 

make sure is there is this tep_href_link for the redirection or you could post that part of the file if its different
