Ted,

I noticed yesterday (when ordering my calender) that you use World Pay, can I ask did you use a 3rd party cart or did you do your own?

Cheers

Paul, I've done a few WorldPay systems before and from the looks of the way PH does it, Ted passes over key details (name, address, phone etc.) to the WorldPay secure site and lets them handle the payment, they will then redirect to a given site after the transaction.

As I recall there are tigher means of integration but the cost and effort is higher so only worth if you have enough monetary throughput.

I can dig up some code (ASP) that shows hows its done if you like...

Hi Tripps

The way Ted has done it would suit my (Customers) needs and seems straight forward enough. My Customer's site already has a cart but this presently just generates an order form.

My main reason for asking was that I noticed that they give links to 3rd party carts but no details of howwhat is required for your own cart (Paypal gives quite comprehensive tech details) so just wanted to know "how" possible doing your own was.

So yes please if you have as example that would be great.

Cheers

Paul

They provide a few example but as I recall (its been a while) they are well hidden.

I'd say they don't really care about products just the end total they skim their percentage off!

If you send me a PM I'll reply with a sample attached.
