Hello!

I am trying to order pics from smugmug from different computers. One is at work and the other two are at home. Can I somehow view that same shopping cart from each of these. I know that the programming uses cookies so I am not sure it this is possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You!

    I don't have any inside info on how smugmug works - this is just my own experiments because I was curious how this works.

    In the hopes that your cart was tied to your login if you were logged in, I tried putting something in my cart in Firefox and then logging into my account on IE on the same computer and then looking at my shopping cart. Nothing showed there. When I look at the cookies in Firefox, there is a cookie called "smugcart" which is probably what has to be there in order to see your cart. So, while the cart is likely server-side stored, the key to seeing it is a client-side cookie that requires the same browser. You might be able to copy cookies from one computer to the other and then access the same cart from both, but I haven't tried that myself.
