Hi

I'm looking for a way of putting a shopping cart on to my site. I have very little experience and was wandering which would be easiest. I have been looking at zencart but it's a bit of a nightmare and I don't know exactly what I'm doing. Just looking for other (simplified) options. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

oScommerce is not bad.  Most carts will be a bit involved.

There's a small cart on my site:

It is simple, but there is still some configuration necessary and it does not support a lot of gateways.  I can configure it for you, for just about any gateway as I have learned it pretty well.

Hi

Thanks for your reply!

I find most of these carts over complicated, not only for my lack of experience but for actually what I need.

Our web site will be in the business of translating the English language into Japanese scripts. My customers send me their English text and I send them back an e-mail containing their English words translated into Japanese. There are no products to put on the site and certainly no shipping. All my customers do is type in their selected English words and choose a script font, then go to cart.

I have been looking recently at the paypal basket which seems very easy to use but I don't hear of anyone on the forum talking about using it. 

If anyone can give me some advice I would very much appreciate it.
