Not that it answers all of your questions - but Amazon persist your shopping basket for AGES. Infact I do wonder if it ever times out, I've known them last a few months before. Mind you - that's because they knew who I was. You ought to group your baskets into "anonymous" and "owned". Keep the owned ones for weeks, if not months, and the anonymous ones shorter. 1 week at the most? -- Best regards, Richard mailto:rich@launchcode.co.uk
