I have been using static pages with paypal buttons, often with some help from javascript to pass additional information to paypal. Its been working fine till now.
Now we need something much more complex. The goal here is to add a shopping cart page, and not change any other part of the existing well optimized site. There will only be one page in the site where people can order merchandise.
The page I am thinking about will have a list of 15 - 20 items for purchase, and it will need a quantity option for each. Then the user should be taken to a checkout page, where they will have multiple payment options, paypal, visa, mastercard, etc. It will need to calculate freight and sales tax; all the usual shopping cart functions.
Maybe the right way to do this is to have a shopping cart in its own special directory and let it do its thing, and just use an iframe to include the dynamic page within a static page.
What I am asking is what is the best way to approach this issue.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
