kipper Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Dear gurus, I am an intermediate php developer. I am creating a web store. In general, I would like to know your thoughts on using the $_SESSION array for keeping track of items for a shopping cart. Would you advise using hidden html fields that will remember what they put in the cart, or do you think a cookie or better session cookie to keep track? Also, I was starting to install Zen Cart, where do you put the CURL files, in the root of local host, or in the root of the application, let's say, localhost/ or localhost/webstore? Thank you for your thoughts from experience. KP Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175159-zen-cart-or-do-it-myself/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
khr2003 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Hi My advice is to use sessions. They are much secure than cookies and easier to use. As for the zen cart I am not sure as I never used it for anything other than quick testing.

As for the zen cart I am not sure as I never used it for anything other than quick testing. I agree with this suggestion, I always use session, they are more secure and easy to use.
