Re: [mv] FastShop



******    message to minivend-users from Victor Nolton <ven@pragakhan.com>     ******

Well right now we have the order buttons like this.
[page form="
                 mv_order_item=[item-code]
                 mv_order_quantity=[item-field q1]
                 mv_todo=refresh"]Buy It</a>

I was hoping there was a way to setup a loop arg or something to 
generate a page after the initial page that plugs in the minimum 
quantities.

Will have to check it out.
