You are trying to re-implement the concept of a session, poorly. Just use plain 'ol php sessions. There is no reason to generate your own session id. Forcing users to a homepage to generate a session_id is a really bad idea. Run session_start() on all pages, and just store the cart (or a key reference to the cart) in $_SESSION. -John C. _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
