General configuration

The general tab of the Add to Cart Button dialog configures the eCart Object associated to the button, whether the properties of the item are retrieved from a recordset or specified directly, and where the button is re-directed to when clicked.

To complete General configuration for the Add to Cart button:

  1. From the Cart name list, select the eCart object available on the page which corresponds to the shopping cart to be populated with this item.
  2. Select whether the item to be added to the cart is to be defined statically or retrieved from a recordset. The specified item ID is placed in a Hidden form element associated with the Add to Cart button when applied.
    • Static definition: Specify a unique Item ID which will identify the product within the shopping cart.
    • Recordset definition: Select a recordset on the page which provides the item's definition information. Specify the column within the recordset which contains the unique id for the item.
  3. Specify the destination page which is redirected to upon adding an item to the shopping cart.

    Use the Browse button to select a file within your site or specify an http:// location.

    Leave this field blank to redirect to the current page.
