Which- Shopping Basket Program + Gallery To Use? - Needing advice on which to choose.

Goosestaf
I need a shopping basket program to use for my new site.
I need it to be free or cost very little, be easily customized and just do the basic things, i.e display an item, how item info, add to basket, pay etc.

any advice on which would be good tochoose would be excellent. Experience would be koo too.

I also need a free gallery to intergrate into my site. Again it has to be free, to basic things and be customizeable.

thank you

If you want a free image gallery then try Coppermine. Its free and packed full of features with extras to download and themes etc.

You could also try writing your own, you can get something pretty basic quite quickly. Just search for a tutorial.

I downloaded that, but it seems like you have to have a linux web server. Will it work on any web server? I've been on the computer for almost 12 hours straight trying to figure out how to enable my website to be ecommerce ready. I have a bit of a dilemma. I am selling single items, so if one is sold, then that item is sold out. I need something that will automatically remove that item from inventory, and I haven't found anything that does that. I'm at a road block, someone please help wacko.gif

Anyway, if oscommerce does does automatic inventory removal that would help alot, but I would need to know whether it can run from any server.

Thanx

on oscommerce: if you're asking if it would run on trap17, yes it would. there's even an auto-installation option in cpanel when you get hosted here so you can just point and click, and can have your oscommerce site setup in minutes.

here are some of oscommerce's features:
http://www.oscommerce.com/solutions/oscommerce

check out the product functionality part, it says "Control if out of stock products can still be shown and are available for purchase". i'm not really sure how it works, but possibly that can handle your inventory requirement. if not, there could be plugins somewhere for oscommerce with the same functionality. you just need to dig it online. smile.gif

my suggestion: try to reach minimum hosting credits for hosting, apply/request for hosting approval, get hosted at trap17, and try out oscommerce in trap17 servers. tongue.gif

Thank you so much for all your suggestions. My app was just approved, so I'll be trying the oscommerce application. So let me get this straight. According to your other post, all I have to do to install it is point and click in my control panel, once I have access?

Thanks

basically, yes. smile.gif login to your cpanel. then go to the fantastico page (near the bottom part, under PREINSTALLED SCRIPTS). scroll down the ECOMMERCE section, click on OS COMMERCE. you will get to the installation page, click the NEW INSTALLATION link. smile.gif on the next page, you will need to type settings you want for oscommerce, like the directory name, etc. fill it up accordingly (remember the details you set here, since you may need it, most especially the ADMIN ACESS DATA. smile.gif write details for archiving purposes and for easy reference later.). after that, click INSTALL OS COMMERCE. smile.gif

that should do it, and you can test out the script on your site. smile.gif

Ok, I installed the program, and now I see that I would undoubtedly like to find a different template, and replace the oscommerce logo at the top. Any suggestions where I can find free templates. Also, I don't know php, is there any simple way to edit the index.php file without ruining the syntax? I tried to edit it in notepad, and ruined it. I had to upload an archive copy of the file, so it would work right.

Any suggestions would be really helpful.

Thanks

  10. Hoverbox Image Gallery - a pretty cool way to present Images on a page (1)
    Hoverbox is an Image Gallery which I found some time ago. The feature I like the most about it is
    the effect of the "on-hover" state which changes the image from a small thumbnail size to a
    "mid-size" image. Essentially, it doubles the size of the picture when your mouse hovers on it. The
    Hoverbox uses CSS for the size change and needs no javascript to perform. In fact, it works the same
    without javascript. And... it apparently works in IE. The CSS method used includes 'hiding'
    the larger image until the 'on-hover' state is reached. As you know, IE&#...
