deleting cart session on page load

Just a quickie...

On my success page. it will send out customer order confirmation and add order to the database on page load. What is the correct session to delete the whole of the ecart session. and I am assuming it would be placed at the bottom of the page? (note: the success page will display a little message to the customer using their name, email, and order number which are displayed on the screen vis sessions) So I would need to delete the ecart session AFTER this information is displayed. I have tried before but it didn't work out as I planned.

use the clear cart behavior, with the before page load trigger and move the code block to the end of the page.

Hmm you mean this block of code:

php:
<?php

// WA eCart Trigger Clear Cart
if ("" == "")     {
  
$DinkyCart->ClearCart();
  
$Redirect_redirStr="";
  if (
$Redirect_redirStr != "")     {
    
$DinkyCart->redirStr $Redirect_redirStr;
  }
  
$DinkyCart->cartAction "ClearCart";
}
?>



I placed it just before the closing HTML tag and the cart contents are still live.

Heres my success page attached.

looks like I got it working, it was my code order and on one of my record update server behaviours I had it redirecting on update...so it would NEVER get to the bottom of the page. and then instead I put the redirect in the ecart ISEMPTY code snippet like follows:

<?php
// WA eCart Trigger Clear Cart
if ("" == "") {
$DinkyCart->ClearCart();
$Redirect_redirStr="";
if ($Redirect_redirStr != "") {
$DinkyCart->redirStr = $Redirect_redirStr;
}
$DinkyCart->cartAction = "ClearCart";
}
?>
<?php
if ($DinkyCart->IsEmpty()) {
$DinkyCart->redirStr = "account.php?Access=order-processing";
$DinkyCart->cartAction = "RedirectIfEmpty";
}
?>
