Interview Question in Database Design


 

Interview Question :: Website shopping cart solutions


What is the best and easiest to use shopping cart software? I already have an existing website and design so it would need to be customizable (I hate templates). I can program (hand code) in html and javascript but do not have database programming skills so anything requiring extensive knowledge of SQL, ASP.NET, etc., is out of the question. I want something easy to use (or easy to learn), something that can possibly be incorporated into Dreamweaver, and something that is fairly inexpensive. Any suggestions?

a couple of the more well-developed shopping cart systems that also happen to be free are these two:

http://www.oscommerce.com/



the only alternative to ready made templates for customization is of course to 'get your hands dirty' - editing the source files to tweak the shopping cart to look the way you want it to.



most modern sites including shopping cart scripts use cascading style sheets for styling, so many aspects of the look of the site can be changed quite easily. 'css' is:

not sure where dreamweaver stands on css, but css is bog-standard these days and requires nothing more than windows notepad to contruct/edit.

The best one I have used is www.vistasites.net

Builds the site in a few minutes and very easy to update and custom build if you choose. Has a complete ecomm intergratd in it as well. It is "template" based for basic users, but has advanced tabs if you do know more

Good luck!
