Front End For My E-commerce


I need to create the front end for my e-commerce store. I would appreciate your thoughts on how this could be accomplished using PHP and HTML. At this time, I do not want to use a database. This store will sell license plates, license plate frames, key chains, etc. There are many combinations of vehicle manufacturer, vehicle make, license plate type, etc. What I want to do is have the customer scroll down the page where each line looks something like this:

Toyota 4Runner Dual Emblem Plate Chrome Emblem- chrome plate D.4RU.CC
$29.95 Add Item To Cart

The field names in order are:

Manufacturer/Make
Plate Type
Plate Description
Stock Number
Price

If the user wanted that item, they would click on an "Add Item To Cart" URL at the end of the line which would then need to create an HTML Hidden Form Post to the shopping cart sotware (Mal's e-commerce shopping cart) passing specific data like Plate Description, Stock Number, Quantity Purchased, Price, etc. Using HTML tables would work out great for me but I need to find a way for the hidden form post to know the information to pass. Is PHP somehow able to get the data from the table? Could it access the data in the cells in a row in a table and place the values in variables?

E-Commerce...
I need a PHP e-commerce package. Now, I have tried several (ussually listed on hotscripts.com), and none of them have been incredible. They all have good features, but none of them collectively have all features (I know this is a tough sell). So, my question is what are people using for PHP e-commerce sites?

Essentially, I am looking for a turn-key back end e-commerce solution that allows online admin of catalogs/orders, extensive discounting (categorically placed sales, quantity discount coupons, the works), inventory control (with unlimited variations; size, color, etc.). The other thing that is very important is that the front-end needs to be 100% customizeable. I mean, if I want to place a .swf file in a product view, I need to be able to do that - not so cookie cutter - if you know what I mean.

So... Is there such a thing? I am very close to just giving up looking and doing it myself, but that'll take weeks, and when I get done that is when I will discover that I have just recreated something that was there all along.

Front End
I need an assist with a coding problem. I don't have any. I am pretty close to code illiterate, so I need to find someone who can crunch up something for me if possible. Myself and another fellow have a website that we use for entertainment purposes, Virtual Airline, no membership fees and everything is free. On this site, we have a MySql database that users transmit data to through a client side app. However, once it is in there, the user can't view the details. What I would like to find some php coding that would. Have an entry that would be hardcoded for that user

Would search by his/her id
Return date of entries (last one first)
Return Departure of each entry
Return Destination of each entry
Return Time taken of each entry
and a link to the dat file sent for each entry.

Is this possible to do with php? Can anyone assist?

E-commerce And PHP Linking
I've done a little research and decided (for now) to use Verisign for the credit card processing, and link that to a Wells Fargo merchant account, which, as far as I know, should work just fine... so here are my quesitons.

is Verisign a good payment gateway?
do they support PHP? If so, how, if not, who does support PHP?
Is there anything else I need in between verisign and the bank?
Am I completely lost and going the entire wrong way?

E-commerce Engines
I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good e-commerce engine (PHP/MySQL). I know there are a lot out there that are fairly mature, and include a lot of advanced functionality that can take a long time to reproduce. However I was looking for one with very few HTML/Design elements already incorporated.

One common, issue I have with some these engines is that they are writing html within functions, and tracking down how everything is layed out can be very painful. I think the best engine for my particular case would be very modular segregating functionality & design.

In addition, another problem I have seen with some of these engines is limited manipulation of page titles & meta keyword/descriptions. This is important to me as well, since most search engines rate their results on these items.

E-Commerce Packages
Can anyone point me to a PHP shopping cart/checkout package that
interfaces with Verisign PayflowPro for payment processing & Nova for
settlement and has an administration tool for product catalogs,
shipping settings, etc.? We're currently using MIVA with the above,
but I'd like to shift us to a more portable script-based commerce
system that can easily be moved from server to server (along with our
secure certificate).

Bonus question: I didn't setup MIVA and am still trying to get my arms
around it. I see where we store our PayflowPro account settings in
there. Does PayflowPro handle the communication with NOVA for
settlement after a card has been processed or does NOVA info need to
be stored in the ecommerce system as well? In other words, does my
question above even need to involve NOVA or is it really just
PayflowPro integration that I have to worry about?

Front For Mysql
Are there any good PHP scripts or pre written programs that deal with a
complex database?
Let me explain:
I'm in truck dispatch, and we've moved all tables to mysql and access them
on a network via ms access.
We will open another office in another city, and will want a "web" database.
Now here's what I'm after: Currently one form has various dropdown boxes to
pick customer, shipper, consignee, and carrier information. YES, I even
have the combos ask (ENTER SEARCH STRING), so all 17000 records do not show
up in the dropdown combo boxes. You might enter da for example to get all
occurrences of carries that start with da, i.e., Davis Transportation Inc.
Currently only about 5 da's. Of course the information in combos are pulled
from the customer database via a query. This all being done in ms access
with the mysql tables linked.

This is a very complex system, and all works perfect on a five computer
network.
By the way, choosing a shipper in a combobox fills in "ALL" necessary fields
for pickup, i.e., Address, contact person, phone number for directions, etc.
Can a web database even do something like this?

When I migrate to a "Web" database, I am looking for a good PHP script /
code / example that can handle this situation of dealing with multiple
lookups on one form, and filling in all required information without having
to type it in each time.

Ok PHP folks can this be done and where are the examples to learn off of?

To put it in a nutshell, I know how to populate a table, search, and edit
records in php. What I need are example of: Say you are entering a new
record, I need a "LOOKUP POPUP TABLE" with a search (enter search string)
like above, and a way to select a row, then the "LOOKUP POPUP TABLE" closes
and the original record I was entering has certain fields filled in. Liken
this to the "Northwind" example that comes with MS Access. In an order
example, they have some customer info auto filled in.

If all I needed was table / forn / search / edit, I could use DADABIK.

And one final question, Do I need a web database, or is it possible to
still use MS Access as a front end from another city / state in a client
server setup? I know how to network all this but not client / server from a
long distance.

Building A Front End
I am building a front end in PHP for a client of mine to dynamically change the "current stock" page help this person be a little more organized, and be able to electronically track their merchandise. Now there is not a lot of merchandise moving through this company, maybe 300-400 items per year at most. So the MYSQL database will not be very large. The kicker is building the forms to query the database.

I am coming up with a ton of different ways to filter results. By item category, creator, date created, size, sub category ... this list goes on and is getting longer. Do customers actually use filtering to that extent? I mean at any given time there could be anywhere from 300 - 600 unique items for sale on this site, so to filter them is a good thing, but when does it reach the point where it is too much?

E-Commerce Merchants (part 2)
One consideration in designing a web interface to a payment system is the
ability to switch e-commerce providers seamlessly. Has anyone looked into
"isolating" the ecommerce part of a web site so that you could change banks
or merchant accounts without disrupting your users? What comes to mind for
me is a period of overlap, so fulfillment and chargeback is given time to
expire on the old merchant. Also, the need to "skin" the store so site
users see a consistent look and feel through as much of the process as
possible. Any other thoughts? Know of any good tutorials?

GNUPG Email Front End
I've been trying to figure out if there is a real GNUPG front end for popular Windows email programs and so far I haven't found any. Yes, they say it's built in Becky but what if I'm using Netscape Mail or Outlook Express. Ok, I downloaded free PGP and it installes a whole bunch of utilities that I don't really need apart from the plain plug-ins. Yes, it does have a plug-in for Outlook Express and Eudora but not for Netscape Mail. I had to modify the gnupg options so pgp could decrypt it too. Well, my major concern is Netscape Mail actually but in general, I would like a plug-in for plain, "clean" gpg.

HTML In Front Of XML While Using SOAP. Please Help.
I am writing some dotNET code to "consume" a web service written in
PHP. So far I have been getting some error messages and PHP seems to
place HTML text in front of the XML message. dotNET doesn't expect the
XML and then it chokes. This is what I get.

The <br> tag from namespace is not expected. Line 1, position 2.

I was able to capture the data going through the network and I've got
the outgoing and incoming messages. I put those at the end of the post
because they are too long.

Looking at them you can perfectly see the HTML I mentioned. In this
case the HTML part says I am missing arguments. That should be an error
message coded in SOAP. But there is more. There is an actual SOAP error
message, it looks like even when the call was bad it executed the code;
it must have put something on the missing parameters.

My biggest issue is that the HTML prevents me from doing proper error
handling on my side of the app. Is this fixable?

Paypal Or Other E-Commerce Payment Methods..
2 Part Payments and taking a commission out of it?

I was told this is possible by one person and that it's not by another. I'm not sure what the real answer is so hopefully someone can help me out. This is what I need:

Person 2 buys something from Person 1
Person 1 transfers money that day and money is held in escrow instead of being sent to Person 2

When Person 2 receives it, Person 2 says "Finish Money Transfer"
Money goes to Person 1 and 5% charge is taken out for use of this "Service" website they used to meet each other

Can that be done? The biggest thing is that the money has to be held for several days in the air until they both agree the service went through okay.

If the 5% charge isn't possible, I could still do math on the amount and just do 2 transactions, couldn't I? A built in feature would always be nicer though.
