Q695 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I'm looking for the core elements for a shopping cart so that I can take any database to turn it into a cart. I believe I'm just looking for simple cores of the following: Add an item (based on item id, and number) Remove an item (based on item id, and number) list items (based on item id, and number) process pay pal payments If you think of any core elements that are needed please include those.

Q695 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 Does everyone use a cart id tied into a database, or is there a better way to do it than that?

Q695 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 I think I'm not going to get an answer, but at the minimum I was looking to find out what other people do to make their own shopping carts.

dbo Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Why do you want to make your own shopping cart. You may have a valid reason... but if you don't I'd suggest using an opensource cart or at least looking at how they built it to come up with ideas for your own implementation.

Q695 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 I'm only able to find fully built php sites with carts, or the carts that aren't free, and easy to use. If I found a cart that had a database, and every element broken out into simple include statements so I can just plug it in I would use the cart system.

Acs Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Try Magento, ZendCart or OScommerce. Magento is the hardest one to grasp but I think it's very powerful.
