Session and cookie information

[ljk]

Hello,

 

I have osCommerce 2.2RC1 installed as my main store on store.com. I then have a Joomla site that is going to have a selection of products from the store displayed on it's site, joomla.com. I am using the CREX contribution to get the product information to display on the Joomla site and it works great. What I would like to do is be able to display the content's of the shopping cart on the Joomla site. Joomla has a function that you can wrap another URL inside of it. But when I try to wrap the store.com/shopping_cart.php page, it always tells me that the cart is empty. I gather this is because the shopping_cart.php is not getting the correct cookie or session so it can display the information.

 

Does anyone know how I can get the correct session or cookie information to pass to shopping_cart.php from joomla.com. Since the shopping_cart.php is wrapped inside Joomla, the user will not 'see' the url of that page, so I could append the os session id on the URL, if I know how to get that information.

 

CREX has the ability to get the shopping cart contents and pass it as an XML file as well as getting the product, but it has the same problem, in that it always returns that the cart is empty too.

 

I really need help with this problem, so if anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate the them.

 

Thanks so much.
