Why not just change the name of the DSN on the server? If that's not
feasible, a better approach either way, would to set the DSN name in
your application.cfm and use a variable name throughout the cart for
the datasource parameter.

In your application.cfm
<cfset dsn = "MyDSN">

Then everywhere it says <cfquery datasource="cart"...>, change to
<cfquery datasource="#dsn#"...>
