I'm surprised there has not been an answer on this. Maybe I wasn't clear in my original post. (Should I submit a support ticket?)
I noticed two things with viart.com's own shopping cart set up.
1) The ssl domain
https://viart.com is disabled.
2) After one places an order, and views ViArt's own cart at:
http://www.viart.com/basket.php
Then if they delete the "www." out of the browser url window, it jumps back to the default
http://www.viart.com/basket.php url so it still holds the content of the basket because it's jumping back to the same url.
However, on my site setup, it doesn't work that way.
If I place an order at
http://MYDOMAIN.com com and view the cart at:
http://MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php
Then enter "www." in front of
http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php
It does not jump back to the "other domain" (in my case,
http://MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php) like ViArts own setup does.
Instead of the contents still remaining in the cart, I get:
"Your shopping cart is empty!"
So how do I make my site have the same behavior as ViArt's own set up which forces the URL back to the original order URL which is holding the cart content?
In other words, if one types in "www." in front of http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php, how do I get it to jump back to the default
http://MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php?
(FYI, ViArt is treating http://MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php and
http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/basket.php as two different domains.)
To put it another way, how do I disable http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/ANYFILE.php and have it always redirect back to
http://MYDOMAIN.com/ANYFILE.php?
Hopefully the above is clear and I can get a response. Thanks in advance. I've been holding off purchasing the Enterprise edition and further development of my site until I can get this resolved and confident that the cart won't drop the content simply because a user typed in the domain name in the wrong form.

PS: IMO, ViArt should be treating both www. and non-www.domains the same way. But perhaps this is impossible for a developer to do?
