Dansie Shopping Cart flaw

Ok, so maybe my choice to use Dansie Shopping Cart wasn't my greatest idea........ But it's done, been done for a while, and I'd REALLY rather not implement a new cart into 200+ web pages. Hopefully someone might have an idea, suggestion, or hack to fix this.

Customers in my survey insist that as well as the check-out page taking their credit card info, the page requesting shipping/billing info should also be a secure (https) page.

This is all doable with Dansie, but when det up, the page displaying the shopping basket also becomes a secure page. The PROBLEM, is that with the browsers Netscape and FoxFire, clicking the "Continue Shopping" button (from the basket page) activates a nasty pop-up warning of a security risk. Although this is a moot point, as there's no sensitive information on the page, it IS scaring away customers.

I've been discussing this with the programs author, and while he agrees this could be an "issue", so far he is unable or unwilling to devise a "work around" that would maintain the current functionality of the shopping cart.

Ideas? Suggestions? Hacks? Address where I can send payment?

I haven't got an answer for this, although I use Dansie too and keep using it for the same reason as you (I hope to replace it this winter with the lite version of X-Cart). I have only had one customer tell me that he thought the shipping info page should be https, but I have not run any survey. What percentage of your customers were bothered by this?

I glanced at Dansie a few years ago while searching for a new shopping cart. I was turned off by their amateurish-looking website. Couldn't imagine their product was good when their site looked as if it were designed by a teenager in 1996.
