Well, I figured out how to show mini cart in my pages.
So it's one of my series to share code with other mivaians..

notes:
1. don't copy paste in ur template, it mayn't work due to missing styles and gifs.
2. you need to add 'basket' item on almost all pages, so that basket item is available for this code
3. You can see it working at my website --> http://www.fragranceocean.com

==============================================
<TABLE class="bestseller" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING = "0" CELLSPACING = "0" WIDTH = "100%">
<tr>
<td height="19" align="center" valign="middle" bgcolor="#999999">
BASKET CONTENTS
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" width="100%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="styleForLink3">
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:basket:empty">
<tr>
<td>
 Your shopping basket is currently empty. 

</td>
</tr>
<mvt:else>
<tr bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<td align = "center">Qty</td>
<td align = "center">Product</td>
<td align = "center">Price</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<mvt:foreach iterator="item" array="basket:items">
<tr>
<td valign="middle" align="center">&mvt:item:quantity;</td>
<td valign="top">
<a href="&mvt:global:sessionurl;Screen=PROD&Product_Code=&mvta:item:code;">&mvt:item:name;</a>
</td>
<td align="right" valign="middle">
&mvt:item:formatted_subtotal;</td>
<td align="center" valign="middle">

<a href="&mvt:global:sessionurl;Screen=SFNT&Action=RPRD&Basket_Line=&mvte:item:line_id;">
<img src="graphics/website/trashcan.gif" border="0" alt="Remove" />
</a>

</td>
</tr>
</mvt:foreach>
<tr>
<td>
</td>
<td align="right">Total</td>
<td align="center" colspan="2">&mvt:basket:formatted_total;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=4 align="center">
<a href = "/shoppingcart">View Details of Basket</a>

</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="4" align="center">

<a href = "&mvt:global:secure_sessionurl;Screen=OINF" target="_top">Checkout</a>

</td>
</tr>
</mvt:if>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Did you use code similar to Ashish? Or is this a module?
thanks

Not a module....I simple cut much of the basket page code and pasted it on to the product dispplay section on the product page.

Regards,H

I will isolate the code and paste it tonoght.

i went your website. cool audio though.

i personally won't recommend putting it under product page.

1. Customer has to scroll down to see mini-basket and it's not customary to put there. If not in side bar, atleast put in top navigation bar.

2. After adding to cart, I selected certail category and then it doesn't show mini-cart. So it shows mini-cart ONLY when u r on product page?

I'm fairly new to miva so I'm wondering where you would put this code. Would I need to create a new item and then call that item in other pages?

Ashish

it;s not new item. U need to put this code in existing item or on every html.

existing item like global bar or navbar or bottombar etc.

existing item like global bar or navbar or bottombar etc.
I am sort of new to this as well.

Where would I paste this code again?

I turned on the item called basket on my CTGY page and pasted the code into the page, but I don't see any mini basket being displayd.

thanks for any help

get latu.net store helper module. It will tell you, whether you got basket item in your page or not?

I noticed a little glitch with this cart. If you are in a category or product page and you remove something from your mini basket it sends you back to the storefront page. Is there any way to stop this from happening?

If you are using my minibasket module it should be taking you to the product page of the item you deleted if you are clicking the product delete link.

Edit the code above to put whatever page you like in there, i.e. remove SFNT and put in, for example CTGY.
