Anyone else had trouble buying these online? Tried on two different PC's
with two different OS's with two different browsers, in each case part
way
through the checkout process (when you put your postcode in), the
shopping
basket display near the top of the screen went from 'your basket contains
1
item' to 'your basket contains 0 items'

Have you got your browser set to reject cookies?

No. And I frequently shop on the net without problems. 3 years ago (or maybe
2, the last time we went) I would have had this problem on a Win98 PC with
IE 5.5. Today had it on a XP with IE 6, and also a Win2k with Netscape 7.
Tomorrow I think I'll try it with Firefox on Linux. I dont think its me
somehow.

Most shoping baskets
seem to store info via cookies, so you either have to set your machine
to accept cookies, or set it to accept cookies just from those web sites
you are trying to buy from.

The effect of blocking cookies is exactly as you describe.

Except there isa running display on whats in te h shopping basket, it says 1
item for several pages, then asks for your post code, after that it goes to
0. maybe they have blacklisted my street :-)

But there are other explanations too.

Yes, that is the one I am looking for :-)
