Hello Kent, Monday, April 4, 2005, 6:21:41 PM, you wrote: K> It would have been easy if i would have used a normal FORM and K> would have had a button called "Add to cart".

Button images are fine: http://www.mompswebdesign.com/html/button_tag.html (just picked that one at random). Another option is to set a unique SESSION variable each time they visit, and that unique variable is only good during that session. You pass that variable in the GET request and then match it on the following page. If they don't match then you know they bookmarked it or fudged the GET request.
