| Hi,
I've developed a shopping cart program whereby customers add items into a
'cart', i.e. a table in a database. In order to identify which items in the
shopping cart belong to a specific customer, I load their session ID number
into the cart as one of the fields...and do a search for items based on that
ID #. Unfortunately, I am now also using an SSL server so that when the
customer goes to a page in the /SSL folder, the session ID # is different
because the SSL folder is located on a different folder.
Questions: What is the best way to track a customer's shopping cart items
from the main server to the secure server so that each item in the cart can
be uniquely associated with that particular customer? Given that multiple
customer may be loading items to the same cart simultaneously, I need a good
way to do a sort. Any suggestions welcome.
