Title: Shoping Cart
Post by: Hdx on March 16, 2006, 09:43 PM
Well, I'm building a site for a small business that I run.
And I would like to add a shopping cart to the site.
Basically it has a page for each item I sell.
I want to add a button "Add to Cart"
Loads up a page asking quantity and asking for conformation.
Then at the top of each page it has a link "Proceed to checkout"
With 1) List all the items, prices, quantities, and total.
2) allows for editing (adding/removing/changing#)
3) continue button
4) Enter there information (CC's, Address, Phone, Name, etc.)
5) Save it locally to the server in a secure manor, or a more preferred method, instant payment via paypal.

Basic shopping cart.
Any suggestions on how I can implement something like this would be lovely.
Just looking for some design suggestions.

Real helpful.

Look into PayPal's solutions. They should be able to handle it (Buy it Now! buttons). Whatever you do, DON'T store your customer's billing information! Ever! No emails, no databases! Have a trusted SSL-verified third party do it!

Search for "Merchant Account/Provider" in google.
