How do i open 2 sessions?(one named and the other unamed) the login session would already be open and then have a shopping cart session that recognises that the login session is authenthicated??
The cart session has been named where as the login session is not named. [sig][/sig]
 
Hi,

First of all, why do you want to do that? What difference does it make if the shopping cart is under the same session and login?

Usually, the key to a shopping cart is that you do not allow the client to enter the same item twice -- which means you have to force a refresh on each page.
Thats tough, since you can only really force the server side to not cache the page using the only active pragma command.

Are you using a custom tag for the shopping cart? or have you written your own? .. and do you have your own image management tag or software?
