Use relative CGI-BIN URLs in catalog pages?

[pharry]

Should this be ticked or not? I ticked it last week when my box displaying cart value & qty was not showing correctly. Today I have some folks telling me that after adding to cart, they are not being returned to the screen from which them came. I'm wondering if I caused a problem by checking this box.

Or are these folks just having cookie problems? (my standard answer to them for pretty much everything, I hate to say.)

I always leave this unchecked - you should be fine with this setting. You then force full URLs to be used rather than relative. If you are using SSL then you must leave this unchecked.

The help says:

With this box not selected, the full cgi-bin URL is used in the web pages e.g.:
http://your.URL/cgi-bin/ca000001.pl
Selecting this box will mean that the web pages leave out the server part of the URL e.g.:
/cgi-bin/ca000001.pl
This enables you to point multiple domain names to the same online store.
