The alternative is to have any returns to the checkout due to payment issues, to simply default back to the regular checkout_payment module. But we'd rather find a solution to keep customers in FEC and have the one click option.
In patching payment modules, it would have seem logical to patch those that are released as core to Zen-Cart first, as the Authorizenet module is just that, part of the core.

Also, I know that you do this as an accommodation and the contribution is freely distributed, and for that I'm very appreciative; however it might be a good idea in your notes for either installation or d/l to state as such this as a known bug and indicate processors that you are aware of that are not fully compatible. We have determined that this has cost my customer thousands of dollars in sales.

I'm not sure why, but I found that merely turning off the contribution does not fully return the system back to the original checkout as I am still not able to see the proper error message for this particular error (I did receive an error for a bad cc # in my testing). Apparently it will be necessary to completely remove the contribution from the system.

I'm going to see if I can find anyway to solve this as my customer truly loves your contribution and does not want the long version put back into place. If I'm fortunate enough to figure this out, I will post the solution here.

Thanks again for your effort, and please do not think that I'm being overly critical. I know how hard it was to get this to work as well as it does, as I personally, before your contribution was released under-took building such a modification and due to issues such as this gave up. (too many bugs). So I do appreciate your hard work and applaud you for it.

Thanks again!
