and I also am having odd problems as well on php 5.4. As soon as i can I'm going to switch that cart to my server with 5.3 to see if it makes a difference.

My original post in this thread I've fixed to some extent - but I've done so many things to that site and have not gotten everything working correctly so I won't post what I did yet.
