I've been having this problem, so I'm trying this to fix it, but I've run
into a snag.  On the flypage, how can I direct the order button that shows
up if you can choose colours for a product to send the item to the secure
basket instead of the insecure one?

[if data products::color::[item-code]]
<FORM ACTION="[process-target]" METHOD=POST>
<TABLE BACKGROUND="__IMAGE_DIR__/__BGIMAGE__">
<TR><TD VALIGN=TOP><FONT SIZE="-1">
[item-accessories color]
</TD><TD VALIGN=TOP><FONT SIZE="-1">
<INPUT SIZE=3 NAME=mv_order_quantity VALUE="1">
</TD></TR>
<TR>
<TD COLSPAN=2>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="[L]ORDER NOW[/L]">
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_todo VALUE=refresh>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_order_item VALUE="[item-code
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_separate_items VALUE="1">
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>

Thanks.
