Firewalls creating lost carts?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : S-Mart Shopping Cart : One Thread

Anyone else have this problem with AOL or people ordering behind firewalls? Their cart contents when checking out disappear!

Thanks.

thats right. it seems to me the only solution for this problem is to make S-Mart ready for cookies. because some providers (T-Online, AOL ...) using dynamic IP-addresses - so S-Mart is not able to handle the basket. or am I wrong?

The browser proxy should be set equally in the security fields: (most users leave this field blank - incorrectly) (I assume you using SSL otherwise you wouldn't be having a problem) This will work if you cannot simply use the direct connection option.
