Or were you proposing that the checkout fail? Otherwise, it seems as if a post-checkout query would do what you wish for the clients that are interested, without making all clients pay the price. </john> <jra> Good point John. Do the checkout, see if you want to continue, and uncheckout if not. Then we wouldn't need to add more control couples to checkout. </jra>
