I am working on a WAMP local server and using Virtue Mart 2.0 on Joomla 2.5 with a Rocket Theme template. I am selecting add to cart and there is no indication that the product was added to the cart until I refresh the page. And the cart is published in a module shows the running totals there. I must click on the show cart link to get the items in the cart in the main component ready for checkout. Seems like I should see the items in the cart after I click add to cart. Is there something in the Virtue Mart store that I should turn on to get this to work correctly?

Hi
I had this problem with the site I am working on. Turned out to be a conflict in the use of jquery across a number of elements within the site. I ended up installing a plug-in titled jQuery Easy which can be downloaded via: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/core-enhancements/performance/jquery-scripts/18327.
This resolved my issues and may help you.
Obviously make a backup using Akeeba before you install just to be safe.
Also, make sure you have 'Display Modal Popup upon Add to Cart' enabled in your configuration/checkout tab.
