Hehe, that's a great idea, I posted something almost same in the

I second this wholeheartedly. It would be great use the collective

Talking about this or that shopping cart may be a long way off topic for

Hi Krystian,

Thats exactly the reason why we have started to use it. Would have

Good points Krystian
I've make standards compliant templates in ZenCart but it was a very
hard slog and involved minimising a lot of the functions and layout
options, not ideal. Also, you rightly address semantic mark-up as
vital which few cart options get right. If I'm in the dvd section,
Okay, I'll try to bring it back OnTopic.
Which of shopping cards actually uses css based templates without
tones of tables? And if noone will mind, which CMS does so?

Don't have much to offer, but just wanted to let you know I looked
