ecart changed

Hello

in some pages I had developed, the ecart function has changed. The web pages now longer direct properly when selecting the add to cart button.

In the Dreamweaver server behaviors, I no longer have the "add to ecart" selection available. Rather, I have a "dynamic attribute" string in its' place.

What happened and is there an easy way to bring it all back to "add to ecart"?

I've included one of the files for your review...

the action of the add to cart button forms has become corrupted.

instead of:

php:
 action="<?php echo $_SERVER["../../newsite/php/PHP_SELF"]; ?><?php echo (isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) && $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] != "")?"?".$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]:""?>"



the code should be:

php:
 action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; ?><?php echo (isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) && $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] != "")?"?".$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]:""?>"

Hi Jason

Well, this seems to happen randomly...

When an end user accesses the cart button on a published web page, that page redirects to itself rather than to the ecart page. The end user cannot purchase the item.

When investigating within Dreamweaver, all the ecart "add to cart buttons" have been replaced with a "dynamic attribute" string.

Do you know what causes this?
Do you know what to look for in the code to repair? (Often re-doing all the ecart buttons is a big time suck)

thank you for your time...

Part 2

In addition to my last post this morning...
I am attaching a file that I found within Dreamweaver that has "lost" the "add to cart button" under the server behaviors tab.

On many other files I show both the "add to ecart button" AND the "dynamic attribute" string

So it seems that the "add to ecart" button sometimes "disappears".

In the file I am attaching there is alot of work into all those ecart button formations and I would appreciate an easy way to repair and restore those buttons.

thanks

Part 3

In the file I sent you in part 2, I see the e_cart within the code, but it is not showing up in server behaviors tab as it usually does.
That web page actually functions fine when published.

I did have a web page this AM that was not functioning and the e_cart was not showing in the server behaviors panel. I don't know if it was embedded within the code or not as i re-did the buttons on that page.

Here's the cart file you requested.

Please let me know what to do with it once it has been worked on OK?

on your page, do a find and replace to hcange:

php:
$_SERVER["../PHP_SELF"]




to:

php:
$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]




and change:

php:
$ATC_RedirectAfter = "../../cart.php";

  $ATC_RedirectAfter = "../../cart.php";


to:

php:
$ATC_RedirectAfter = "../../cart.php";

  $ATC_RedirectIfIn = "../../cart.php";

Worked perfectly. thank you.

What caused this so that it doesn't happen again? This has been the fifth time it has happened. Any ideas?
