Link on site to shopping cart

Hi

 

I have a webstore with different items on different html pages.

 

I have been able to modify OS Commerce so that:

 

1. If I put something into my shopping cart and then press 'continue shopping' I go back to the store

 

2. When I click on the shopping cart link that I pasted onto the html pages to go back to my shopping cart...the cart is empty.....there is no item even though I placed it into my shopping cart previously.

 

This is the code that I used. Is there a way that I can have the customer go back to the shopping cart and still have the items that s/he previously put there?

 

<a

Contents " width="30" height="30"></a>

 

Thanks

I would try changing admin > Configuration > Sessions > Force Cookie Use to true.

 

Hth,

Always back up before making changes.

Thanks for your response.

 

I did as you said, went to admin > Configuration > Sessions > Force Cookie Use to true.

 

Now when I place something in the shopping cart it takes to me cookies_usage.php (saying the computer is not set up to accept cookies). However, when I went to my preferences, and about Internet Explorer, all of my browsers are set to accept cookies, IE security set to medium. When I click continue it takes me to index.php. when I finally navigate to the shopping cart, there is nothing there. I have tried this on IE, Netscape (both on Mac and PC) and Safari (on mac).

 

Please help! This is the last stage to setting up this website. Once this is done we're good to go!

 

Thanks!

I just had a thought, I am re-vamping a site that is currently live. So to test and demo the site I am using the server name as the url ...

 

http://##.###.##.###/~name

 

Could this be the issue that is causing the cookie problem stated above?

 

Thanks for your help!
