WYSIWYG Shopping Cart?

[devilalum]

Does anybody know of a WYSIWYG shopping cart creation tool?

I use Dreamweaver to create pages but I know nothing about ASP so something like oscommerce is out of the question. Is there a shopping cart that opens in Dreamweaver and can be edited in "Design" mode?

I just need to create a real simple shopping cart for my church to use to sell tickets to a few events and let people make donations with their credit card.

And I don't want to use paypal, we already set up an account with authorize.net.

Thanks.

I would use a third party tool...don't make your own, the security problems would be insane.

I used to use Vcart.com for a guy who sold Beanie Babies online, and it worked well.

GoDaddy.com's quick shopping cart is easy and it works with authorize.net. If you do not want to pay the monthly fee there is osCommerce http://www.oscommerce.com// Just a few ideas.

I use a service called CCNow... I have no complaints, there are a few sites I maintain and they also are on CCNow.

I installed oscommerce but it is WAY over my head. It is monstrous and you can't edit it with Dreamweaver.

This is the first situation I've seen where the biggest most comprehensive application is free (oscommerce) and you have to pay to buy a simpler product.

Those services look OK but they seem to start at about $30 a month.

With PayPal users have to create a PayPal account to make purchases. I know when I'm buying I like to just put in my card number address etc and be done with it. Do these other services require users to create an account?

With the QSC, the customer has the option to create a account, but it is not required. Since you are authorize.net, you do not have to use the paypal option and your customers can just put in there credit card info. If you are doing tickets and donations you can use the 9.99 a month, 20 product plan. You would just need a ssl and that is 19.99 a year otherwise the program does not allow you to take credit cards.

That sounds good but would I have to use oscommerce?

Nope, quick shopping cart is a template base online program. It is really easy.

Anybody know of a reason why I shouldn't use PayPal to set up simple credit card transactions?
