I gave up after only trying to add two fields because the other features that I needed in a shopping cart were WAY more complicated than the two fields and I reasoned that if it was that difficult to add two fields it's going to be near impossible to add what I wanted. So I decided my time would be better spent developing my own cart (what learning experience it's been!!). I would be able to extend my own cart much more quickly and efficiently than I could anyone elses code. > Also, it tries to throw in the kitchen-sink worth > of options and if you need something slimmer or more easily > configured you might be better off starting from another codebase. +1 Chris. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
