You could always set a more persistant cookie with a UUID or some other
indentifying number and use that to key the cart information into a
database and go from there.  This would also provide you with abandoned
cart information for later analysis.  On successful processing of the
order, delete the cookie.

Just a thought...

Subject: Shopping Cart


Hey everyone.

I have a shopping cart CFC which is working fine. My problem is this: in
order to pay via CC, the user is taken to a third party site that is
branded to look like mine running except this is SSL. Now when the suer
leaves my site, I have a session variable holding the shopping cart
object; but a previous replier stated that going from http to https
requires manually tracking the CFID and CFTOKEN... so when the third
party site redirects the user back to my site, i check the order
processed for Yes or No and if Yes I am unable to record the sale since
the session variable is not valid anymore. Does this make sense? Is
there some other technique I can use? Client Variables? etc..

Thanks.

Mike
