Luna asked:


How do I customize the opening page? I have designed sites in Pagemill and Dreamweaver, but this has to be done in Zencart (so Iv’e been told), and I don’t have a clue. Any help will be appreciated!

The Lady Amalthea asked:


Which shopping cart is the best in terms of user friendliness? Zen Cart, OS Commerce, or Cube Cart? I am familiar with some programming (average) but I am by no means an expert. Which cart is the easiest to manipulate and has easy to follow setup or tutorials? Any info appreciated

helmutt asked:


I have a good handle on HTML, but that’s about it. PHP and coding is new to me, I know some but not that much. Mostly simple forms.

I host sites at Godaddy and use Dreamweaver to build.

I just want to make sure that it is easy to work with and integrate into an existing website.

Brian D asked:


Ok, so I am finally trying to take advantage of my online shopping carts installed by bluehost. The problem is, I don’t know anything about shopping carts… yet. Seems I have a choice between Zen Cart, Agora, oSCommerce, and CubeCart… So which is the most secure? How about the easiest? What I would really like to do is design or download PHP, ASP, JavaScripts, to use with the shopping cart. Which is the best for that? How about overall with security being the priority? Will any one in particular, (maybe all), allow someone to pay with a credit card then after that is done be able to automatically retrieve an encrypted key and e-mail it to that person? Or e-mail the person with a website link so that they can download something? Wow, the shopping cart world is the most interesting, I could however use a little guidence.

Thanks,

Brian

Ralph asked:


I want to make a site that lists one product only. I don’t want to sell affiliated products or list anything else, just this one single product. I am desperate not to have to create a modified OsCommerce, cube cart, zen cart, yahoo store etc hybrid for only one product.

I deally, I’d like to make the site clean and CSS perfect and then have a button sending the person directly to paypal for processing the amount of the product they require and then back to my site when done. Without massive coding or terribly complex processes, what should I do?

acbatchelor asked:


I have a store where I sell shirts. I am looking to start selling on the internet. I need to know if these shopping carts will allow me to have 17 different colors and 8 different sizes that will change the original price of the product (using drop-downs). I also would like to know if these carts can be used with spreadsheets.

Elliot asked:


I just installed zen cart, but when i log in to it, its just the ‘raw’ page with no template. Not even any default template. Is this normal? I downloaded the bare bones template from the zen site, and went to update it, but still nothing. any ideas?

The question, what is the best FREE integrated development environment for PHP / mySQL ?
