I am having a problem with my "account.html" file. I’m using IC 4.6 & what I’m wanting to do is allow users to create an account & without having to have items in their cart.  Therefore they can create an account, be logged in and browse the site til checkout My problem is right now 1) after putting in all the info (name, address etc) and click on the "Save Account Info" button at the bottom it reloads the page and returns to the "account.html" instead of being bounced to index.html like I would like it to do.  I would like to know the text so after they fill in the info & click the "Save Account Info" they "[bounce]" to my index.html” and still be logged in & the info is written to the UserDB of course.  And 2) If they don’t create an account until they want to "check out" I would like the "Save and Checkout" button to appear if items are in their cart and after filling in the info they will click “Save and Checkout” & they go through the checkout process. Which I guess is what happens by default, I want to
 keep this feature.  I listed the coding that I have right now which is I guess the default coding. What coding do I need to edit or add to my current coding? I appreciate anyone’s help & time!
Thanks!

<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_order_profile VALUE=account_change>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_todo     VALUE=return>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_nextpage VALUE=account>
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=mv_check    VALUE="Save_database"> 

and towards the bottom for the Buttons I have: 

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Save Acct. Info">
[if items]
[set Save and Checkout]
mv_nextpage=ord/checkout
[/set]
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Save and Checkout" NAME=mv_click>
<br><br>
<font size="2" __FFACE__><A HREF="[area ord/checkout]">No change, go to checkout</A></FONT>
