RE: [mv] Multiple carts in one basket page... [quantity-name] pr ev ents this?

[Eric.Lewis@swisscom.com]

Ok, this actually works, i just have to specify the cart in every form, i.e.
                    [if items main]
                    [then]
                        [cart main]
                        <form action="[process-target secure=1]"
method=post>
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_session_id"
value="[data session id]">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_cartname"
value="main">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_doit"
value="refresh">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_orderpage"
value="ord/basket">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_checkout"
value="ord/checkout">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_nextpage"
value="index">
                                    (display cart "main")
                        </form>
                    [/then]
                    [/if]
                    [if items rental]
                    [then]
                        [cart rental]
                        <form action="[process-target secure=1]"
method=post>
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_session_id"
value="[data session id]">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_cartname"
value="rental">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_doit"
value="refresh">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_orderpage"
value="ord/basket">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_checkout"
value="ord/checkout">
                            <input type="hidden" name="mv_nextpage"
value="index">
                                    (display cart "rental")
                        </form>
                    [/then]
                    [/if]

However this also means I have two sets of buttons (although I put in some
statements to show the "Stop shopping" and "Check out" only once), and if
the user changes a quantity in the upper cart, but klicks on the lower
cart's "Recalculate" button, nothing will happen... But I guess that's life
;-)

Thanks for your help!

Eric
