i am using a perl program to handle checkout and can't get the cart to clear. i've pasted a thankyou.html file from another thread and that doesn't work - i can't get rid of the cart contents (everything else works fine).
also want to add a button on a "Review Cart" page where the user can empty the entire cart instead of removing items individually.
can anyone help!?
thanks

There are 2 ways to clear the cart--
Add this button to managecart.html:
Add this function to nopcart.js:
To empty the cart from thankyou.html, without loading the entire nopcart.js and language files, add this between the head tags:
and change the body tag to:
If you are asking for credit card information, your checkout must be on a secure server, which is a different domain than the unsecure store server. You will want to clear the cart on the store server that has managecart on it, so place your return page (thankyou.html) on that server, and add the proper path to checkout.pl. There is no need to empty the cart on the secure server, that will be overwritten with the next order, and the customer will never see it.
Remember that these cookies are only session cookies, and only persist as long as the browser is active. Once the browser is closed, there are no more cart content cookies.

Add this button to managecart.html:
- Code: Select all
<input onclick="ClearCart(); document.location=('managecart.html')" type="button" class="button" value=" Empty Cart " name="Empty">
Add this function to nopcart.js:
- Code: Select all
//---------------------------------------------------------------------||
// FUNCTION: ClearCart ||
// PARAMETERS: None ||
// RETURNS: null ||
// PURPOSE: To empty the shopping cart ||
//---------------------------------------------------------------------||
function ClearCart(){
SetCookie ('NumberCookies', 0, null, '/');
}
To empty the cart from thankyou.html, without loading the entire nopcart.js and language files, add this between the head tags:
- Code: Select all
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
<!--
function ClearCart(){
SetCookie ('NumberCookies', 0, null, '/');
}
function SetCookie (name,value,expires,path,domain,secure) {
document.cookie = name + "=" + escape (value) +
((expires) ? "; expires=" + expires.toGMTString() : "") +
((path) ? "; path=" + path : "") +
((domain) ? "; domain=" + domain : "") +
((secure) ? "; secure" : "");
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
and change the body tag to:
- Code: Select all
<body onLoad="ClearCart();">

i still cannot get the cart to clear. i would like to concentrate on getting the empty on demand fuction to work because i really want that feature and if i can get that to work, surely i'll be able to clear it on checkout.
the code you sent for ClearCart() is executing and there is no error message, but the cart display remains unchanged. after seeing that i added a confirmation string (to track execution) and still no change on the cart.
i am running JavaScript Shop Module, V.4.4.0
in the managecart.html page, before the checkout button, i added:
<input onclick="ClearCart(); document.location=('managecart.html')" type="button" class="button" value=" Empty Cart " name="Empty">
in language-en file i added:
strEmpty = "Click 'Ok' to empty your shopping cart.";
in nopcart file i added:
//---------------------------------------------------------------------||
// FUNCTION: ClearCart ||
// PARAMETERS: None ||
// RETURNS: null ||
// PURPOSE: To empty the shopping cart ||
//---------------------------------------------------------------------||
function ClearCart(){
if ( confirm( strEmpty ) ) {
SetCookie ('NumberCookies', 0, null, '/');
}
}
i get the confirmation window, click ok, there's a little activity and the cart remains unchanged. i originally added your code unchanged and since nothing happened, i added the confirm to make sure the button was actually doing something.
am i doing something wrong? i have not debugged java before and so any help or hints are greatly appreciated.
thanks

- Code: Select all
function deleteAllCookies() {
var cookies = document.cookie.split(";");
for (var i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) {
var cookie = cookies[i];
var eqPos = cookie.indexOf("=");
var name = eqPos > -1 ? cookie.substr(0, eqPos) : cookie;
document.cookie = name + "=;expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT";
}
}
Please note that this won't work if your cookies are configured to use a path or domain component.
