Hi guys,

After being spanked last time for not giving enough info... here goes!

I have cut down (visually) the open source shopping cart from

http://www.opencart.com/

and am now trying to call the index.php from within a wordpress page.

To use php from within wordpress I have installed this script as a plugin...

http://priyadi.net/wp-content/plugins/phpexec.txt

My shopping cart is in the same directory as wordpress, so how do I try to do an 'include'?

Or.... have I gone about it all wrong? The shopping cart is a very user friendly one and I would like to keep it. Are there other ways to 'embed' or 'insert' it?

I'm posting my problem on their forum and will let you all know how I get on.

Cheers,

DB

ok.... seemed to have a basic simple solution. Use html iframe command.

If anyone sees any holes in that theory please let me know.

Cheers.

I would actually suggest installing a shopping cart plugin for WordPress. There are several, but one popular (free) one is WP E-Commerce.
Another non-free (but really top notch) one is Shopp.
You can, of course, do what pathfinder suggested, but one problem you might have is that security software might actually warn users that you're opening a shopping cart from within an iframe (this could be considered a security issue).
