Do I have to place a Quantity in the Cart form for it to work?
When you design a shopping cart form for CartIt, placing a default value in the Quantity field is optional. The shopping cart knows when you post the form to place "1" in the cart if you do not specify a quantity. As an added benefit, leaving the field blank makes the page look less cluttered.
Note: While developing CartIt many years ago, it was found that placing a default quantity of "1" in the shopping cart form field was suggesting shoppers to buy just "1" of an item- so you may leave it out.
