session abandon

Hi,

The "<% Session.Abandon() %>" is on my confirm-page to delete the content of the shopping cart after ordering. But with this script also the userID will destroy. So customers need to login again after they confirmed their order.
How can I fix it that only the shopping cart session will be destroyed ?

I'am working with aspVB-script and dreamweaver.


Thanks in advance,
Geert.

instead of using session.abandon, use a clear cart behavior.


on the server behaviors panel click the plus button and select eCart -> Cart Display -> Clear Cart and set the trigger to Page Load.

you may need to move the placement of the clear cart code so it is after the other processing on the page, this will clear the cart, but leave the user logged in.

This behaviour makes a "Clear Cart Button" !?
There's no "Clear Cart" behaviour.

Go to the server behaviors tab, click the plus button and select eCart -> Cart Display -> Clear Cart to add the clear cart behavior.

Sorry ... but as you see in attach, there is no "Clear Cart".
There is a "Clear Cart Button". I tried that, but that's not the purpose.

It will still add the clear cart code to the page.


you can delete the button from the display and edit the trigger so it will occur on page load, send a copy of the page with the clear cart button on it, and i can tell the code change to make.

the clear cart code is at line 70 - 80:

<%
' WA eCart Clear Cart
if (cStr(Request.Form("stickersBE_Clear_1")) <> "" OR cStr(Request.Form("stickersBE_Clear_1.x")) <> "") then
set stickersBE = WA_eCart_ClearCart(stickersBE)
Redirect_redirStr="index.asp"'_redirStr
if (Redirect_redirStr <> "") then
stickersBE_redirStr = Redirect_redirStr
end if
stickersBE_cartAction = "ClearCart"
end if
%>



you can edit the if statement;

if (cStr(Request.Form("stickersBE_Clear_1")) <> "" OR cStr(Request.Form("stickersBE_Clear_1.x")) <> "")     then




to:

if ((Request.ServerVariables("Request_Method") = "POST"))     then



so it will trigger when the order is processed to clear the cart,

you will also want to move the code block so it is after the email, and store Cart summary / details behaviors.

Thanks, it works now like it should.
Even my other issue is solved, "Block UEmail when ...".
