Thanks Ferg, we'll look into it that option. We have also looked at oscommerce which is an open source php project.

My advice, and this is gonna be wildly unpopular on this list, is to use X-Cart (www.x-cart.com). It's PHP not CF, but it is very good. I've used it in a number of situations and I've never regretted it. I always wished I was better at PHP when using it, as it would have taken me a lot less time to do some of the custom mods I did, but it really is a nice app. Actually, what I really wished is that I had time to dedicate to making a CF store app that matched X-Cart feature for feature -- that would be the perfect scenario. It's cheap too; for a complete Gold license with source and all is only $200 and it will give you, I bet, everything you need. I agree with the others that building your own cart is the way to go, but if time is an issue you can get x-cart up and running and loaded with products in just a couple of days. --Ferg Scott Mulholland wrote: >Our plan is to roll our own out in the future, the creation of it is not a >factor for us on this one, the timeframe is so we are looking to go off the >shelf this time around. > >-----Original Message----- >From: Larry Lyons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, October 10, 2005 10:04 AM >To: CF-Talk >Subject: Re: Shopping Cart solution - any others to look at? > > > >>I'm currently evaluating some e-commerce solutions for an upcoming >>project. >>Past postings have pointed me to look at cartweaver, cfwebstore and >>ablecommerce.
