Insert Basic Cart In Existing HTML...
Hi,
Can the cart code be inserted into an existing page rather than use the theme designer.
For example a template for a site may exist with an editable content area that the cart code could be inserted into.
Cheers

Negative.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!
Hiya Dave,
Although you can't actually insert the code of the cart, you can match external pages pretty easily if you have a little knowledge of HTML and/or PHP and CSS of course. There are also themes on the CC Store pages that are for the HTML Editor that match some of the themes that are offered for the SCC's which might help too. It's not horribly hard to match them if you are trying to do that, just takes a bit of time. Quite a few of us have done that to enhance our shop pages with HTML pages outside of the SCC programs.

Dave you can upload the cart to a separate location like, /store/ on your server, and put a link on your existing site to point to the store. then use the cart designer to tweak the cart to look like your site. although you won't be able to make it look just like it, you can get really close.
so you'd add a menu item to your current site called 'eStore' (or whatever) and then in the href tag (the link) you'll put your domain name and then the new directory you created. so if your site was named, daveswebsite.com the new link would be http://www.daveswebsite.com/store/ and the default page of index.php would populate the page with the cart information you uploaded into the /store/ directory.
hope this helps!
