| Thank you Chuck!  I use Front Page 2002.  Your info was helpful to a point.
| I was able to create the view order button very easily with your method,
| which will help for the future, but the View Order Button reacted in the same
| way as buttons I created in the past (by opening the left shared border and
| inputting script into HTML mode).  The script is the same as what I put into
| the content area of my page (no problems with that), but the new script
| caused my order cart to work improperly (i.e. items placed in the order
| basket did not display when the new View Order Button was selected).
| Possibly having 2 view order buttons on a page can cause them to work against
| each other, thus the malfunction!  Can that happen?
