WebPlus X5: Urgent Ecommerce Help !!!!!!!!!!!

[bswas]

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum and to this product too. By far i've used serif webplus x5 a bit and am designing an online store. I've had all the pre-requisites done, except for one of them...SHOPPING PLATFORM!!!
Actually i don't want to use any of the shopping carts. in our site, customers just look for the products, they choose to by it and place an order...just place an order detailing their name, telephone, etc. now, when they place the order a mail should be sent to our address and we getting notified by it, will deliver the product to customer...

Now the problem is, i can create the form but how wud i make the form list the product the customer choose to place an order for????????? i simply cant crack it...and dont want to use any shopping cart since i want this minimal feature,,,, help guys

Well, welcome to the Serif forums.

You can create a long form with all the product and their options on it and your clients can indicate which ones they want.

Or, learn to write code so that each product wanted is help in memory and then added to the form.

If it were me, I'd use Mal's Cart without a payment gateway. Select the items, they go into the cart. COmplete the order and get an email with the details.

...ya i tried the mal's cart too, but i didn't like the appearence of the checkout page...is there anything i could do to customize them...if its possible..it wud b a great relief for me...bcoz apparently creating such long form is impractical....
