Hi - Apart from telling me that I have connected to the database successfully I get a blank page when I view this page - am very new to PHP and used a tutorial to build this shopping cart all the code was supplied so I have not actually done much to it but it won't work when I upload to webserver and view the page.Oh dear since posting I have fixed this issue! Not sure if I should leave it on here or not? Guess I will leave it in case someone else has the same issue - I removed all the '@' symbols and then I got new errors to do with the connection strings to database, which I then removed as I did actually add the very first line from some other advise I received. Now it works - YAYE!

Hi Kirsty,
I use an existing class that implementing a shopping cart using session variables, your implemented cart works directly on database. the implementing that I recommend you works with session variables and at final insert the items registered in cart in order to obtain the best performance. the items can be delete, update and insert in a session array.
You can download the cart class in: www.desarrolloweb.com/articulos/1636.php
I hope be useful,
