I am in the middle of creating a new site from scratch.

One time I accidently opened it in Firefox ( I usually use IE) and noticed that add to cart / buy now button doesn't work for neither one of my products, yet it works perfectly in IE. When i click the "Add to Cart" button in Firefox, it just brings me to an empty shopping cart page.

I dont have any mods installed yet.

I did changed 1 or 2 things in product.tpl before, so I figured simple restoring of that template will fix the problem. Unfortunatelly it did not... Same exact thing happens with original template as well. As for products.tpl, that i never modified before at all.

I also noticed that if I generate HTML links for any of the poducts I have, those work just fine in FF and get the product added to cart.

I would appretiate any help, please!

misery loves company. i'm noticing the same thing - it didn't used to be the case, this is an x-cart gold 4.1 we started late last year and finally set live today and i'm at a loss as to why this is happening.

Are you seeing any javascript errors when you click on it? Look in the errors reporting area.

One of our clients just discovered the very same issue - x-cart version 4.1.11. Products can be added to cart in IE but not in Firefox and I don't see any errors.

It's very strange because this a cart we updated in January 2009 and didn't touch since then.
After upgrade everything was working ( we use Firefox as main browser).

Does anyone have any suggestion?

Thanks,
Gabriela

There seems to be something related to www vs. non www. I forced everything to www and it works now.

Ok I got it fixed by x-cart team, heres the solution:

"I've inspected the issue and found out it can be replicated not only under FF but in Opera and IE as well and the following circumstances:

If you try to add something into cart when the URL of your site is the following http://www.yoursite.com/ - everything is OK.
But wheny you try to add something into cart when the URL of the site is the following http://yoursite.com/ - the problem appears.

I've thoroughly investigated the issue and this seems to be a bug of the X-Cart. In order to solve it I've adjuested the following file <xcart_dir>/include/sessions.php and the problem has gone away.

Here is an instruction on how to do it in the future:

1) Please, open the <x-cart dir>/include/sessions.php and find the following section:

 
x_session_register("_saved_session_fg", x_session_get_fg());
$_saved_session_fg = x_session_get_fg();func_setcookie($XCART_SESSION_NAME, $XCARTSESSID, 0, "/", $xcart_https_host, 0);func_setcookie($XCART_SESSION_NAME, $XCARTSESSID, 0, "/", $xcart_http_host, 0);

add after it the following:

func_setcookie($XCART_SESSION_NAME, $XCARTSESSID, 0, "/", "", 0); 

2) Find the section:

$XCART_SESSION_EXPIRY = $expiry_time;    $XCARTSESSID = $sessid;    func_setcookie($XCART_SESSION_NAME, $XCARTSESSID, 0, "/", $xcart_https_host, 0);    func_setcookie($XCART_SESSION_NAME, $XCARTSESSID, 0, "/", $xcart_http_host, 0);

add after it the following:

func_setcookie($XCART_SESSION_NAME, $XCARTSESSID, 0, "/", "", 0);

Hope this info will help to everyone who has the problem
