Redirecting sale from another website to xcart shopping cart
 

I presently have a store that is identical to the xcart shopping cart store, it has the search engine ranking, so that is where the customers go. It is a completelly different website, but the shopping cart does not function any more, because I terminated service with the shopping cart provider I was using (clip on commerce). I have added a notice to the home page that informs customers of this and gives a link to the X-cart store. What I would like to do , but I am having problems with is to redirect purchases from that store to the X-Cart store. If the customer clickes on the add to cart button, they will be directed to the X-cart cart page.

this is the code I have added to the store to attempt the redirect but it does not seem to work, it will give the cart, but the cart is empty.

<form action="https://www.webordergifts2.com/shop/cart.php?mode=add" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="productid" value="16138">
<input type="hidden" name="product_avail" value="1">

<input type=image src=add2cart.gif border=0>
</form>

thank you, Dave Gager

After further thought on this, I have concluded it would be a lot easier just to redirect the purchaser to the catalog page for the item, insted of trying to add an item to the shopping cart from another website. Though it would be nice to know how to do this.
