Post Returning to search list after add to cart 
I want my store set up to not take the customer to the cart after each addition, but when I set it up that way in store manager, instead of returning the customer to the search list they were on, it shows a garbled listing of the complete database (garbled because it doesn't match any of my ppinc formats or show basic info like name). My store is at http://www.mbtb.com/cgi-bin/Mysteries/agora.cgi. It is currently set up to take the customer to cart after each addition, since the other setting makes shopping impossible. I have only a very reduimentary knowledge of perl or html. Thanks for any help you can offer.

The productPage.inc file is the default layout and will always revert to it if a ppinc is not specified.

To not have the 'view cart' show up after adding to the cart:
manager -> program settings -> main agoracart store settings
answer "NO" to the following question:
How do you want to the customer to view the cart contents after adding an item to the cart?

HTH!

I have the store search set up to use a ppinc-search.inc that I have modified the layout to [I suspect it is these modifications that have caused the problem].

This is where I have the problem: when I set the view cart selection to "no", funny things happen. It is NOT set that way now because this site has been up and running for a while and gets hundreds of hits a day and I don't want to make the shopping cart virtually unusable, as it is when I set it to "no." I just tried a search/order to see if you could replicate the problem by changing the "vieworder" in the navigation bar from "yes" to "no" but discovered that it reads "agora.cgi?viewOrder=no" -- though you do indeed view the order (!?) You can get the same problem by clicking on "continue shopping" once you are viewing the cart.

Sorry I wasn't clearer the first time -- thanks for your quick response.

Did you rename it to productpage.inc? Unless you renamed it as such, it will not be used as the default file.

Sounds like there may have been customizations that may not be standard or you may be running an old version.
What version do you have?
You might need to obtain some tech support troubleshooting help to track down what is happening.
HTH!

Post more info 
I'm using 4.0 (I think -- the last version prior to the newest; I downloaded it in February), but I think its my customization that is the problem. I have seen suggested code elsewhere in this forum. If I posted the script I'm using in my current search.inc, could you see the problem, or is that something that only tech support handles now?
