Hi,

I found an older message to my problem:

Quoting Karsten Wendland (karsten@wendland.de):

I am surprised people don't look at the URLs these things generate.
If you do, you will find that an [order 00-0011] tag is really the same
as [page order 00-0011] or <A HREF="[area order 00-0011]">. There are
some other subtleties if you are using multiple shopping carts, but I
don't think that many people do.

What do I have to do if I want to use different orderpages?

I tried this, but none is working:
<A HREF="[area order [loop-code]]" TARGET="links">O</A>
<A MV="order [loop-code]" HREF="/hshop/links" TARGET="links">1</A>
[pagetarget links order [loop-code] /hshop/links]2[/pagetarget]


This works, but not with all browsers (Opera e.g.):
[framebase links][order [loop-code] /hshop/links]X[/order]

Has anyone an idea?

Thank you.

I just updated the docs for 3.11:
=item [order code cart/page* database*]
named attributes: [order code="code" href="cart/page" base="database"]
HTML example: <A MV="order code" HREF="ord/basket">

Expands into a hypertext link which will include the specified code in
the list
of products to order and display the order page. B<code>should be a
product
code listed in one of the "products" databases. The optional argument
B<cart/page> selects the shopping cart the item will beplaced in (begin
with /
to use the default cart C<main>) and the order page that will display
the
order. The optional argument B<database> constrainsthe order to a
particular
products file -- if not specified, all databases defined as products
files will
be searched in sequence for the item. Example:

Order a [order TK112]Toaster[/order] today.
Note that this is the same as:
Order a [page order TK112]Toaster</A> today.
You can change frames for the order with:
Order a <A HREF="[area order TK112]" TARGET=newframe>Toaster</A> today.
