How is this possible? I have added all the code before <head> from productpage.asp in to my shared border to display the cart contents.. then when i load up my index.asp page it does not display any contents, it only displays it when i go to view1.asp then it works..

how do i do it?

Is the shared border an ASP page? Are all of your pages saved in ASP?

Also, the include paths should be set to something like

I don't think shard borders can be saved as a asp, and then used as a shared border.. the top shared border is saved as a htm file, but the index.asp page uses top.htm shared border.

the result is a asp page..

This is the contents of top.htm it works when viewed in view1.asp (i.e. the top border does display the cart contents, but it does not work in any other asp page) i think i am missing something.

That's correct but you need to save your pages in .ASP and not the shared borders. View1.asp is already doing what you're trying to do so the code that you have is basically is refined.

To be honest, no. I have not tried designing a site that has shared broders with ASP codes. That's also where FP sort of comes in short handed. You may want to use Google and see if anyone else is having the same issues.

unfortunatly not many people actually use salescart to that extent so thier is no relevant information on google, it should be on this forum,

i am thinkcing that it does work on the shared border but only when it is in view1.asp but outside of view1.asp page it does not work.. so their is something missing i would assume.

I have used shared borders successfully since I purchased SalesCart years ago (until I redesigned recently and stopped using the shared borders). The shared border does not have to be saved as .asp (I don't think FrontPage even allows that).
