I know TXP is being used mostly for blogs and small sites. I have a project that needs a combo of the grace and ease of TXP and a standards-compliant shopping cart/eCommerce system.

Just thought I’d see if anyone else out there could use something like this. The PHP involved is over my head at this point. I am thinking about doing it in Flash – cos I can make it go with AS – unless I come up with something else.

Any recomendations???

Anyone else lookin’ for something like this?

I’m working on a commercial service site right now, done entirely in Txp. Every form for sending data through the site is stored as a ‘form’, and every bit of text from the front page blurb to the help files to the navigation in columns is stored as an article (which means the client can edit whatever they want, whenever they want). New sections = very clean urls.

All the PHP that talks and listens to Paypal is in one file auto-prepended with htaccess, but could just as easily be whapped in as plugins.

Txp, if I do say so myself, is one powerful site building machine.

Very cool – but, Dean, you are too, too modest.

TXP’s the Top! TXP’s the colosseum,
TXP’s the Top! TXP’s the Louvre museum,
TXP’s a melody from a symphony, by Strauss,
TXP’s a Bandle bonnet, a Shakspeare sonnet,
TXP’s Mickey mouse.
TXP’s the Nile,TXP’s the Tow’r of Pisa,
TXP’s the smile on the Mona Lisa;
I’m a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop,
But if Baby, I’m the bottom,
TXP’s the top!

(abused from Cole Porter’s “You’re the Top!”)

Dean, you really are the man! I seriously can’t imagine not having TXP around – totally changed the way I am approaching site design… anyhow, to quote you:

>All the PHP that talks and listens to Paypal is in one file auto-prepended with htaccess, but could just as easily be whapped in as plugins.

What is the chance of getting that as a plug-in – I would most certainly pay for that little piece of magic!

Could we have an update on this ?

I’d be interested in hearing more about this Shopping Cart feature.

if you’re looking for a accessable, cool shopping cart, I’ve seen a lot of endorsements of Karova

From what I see it’s .NET, do they have a php implementation?

I see this thread originated about 9 months ago. Has anyone ever come upon an eCommerce solution for integration with TP? I have been looking at TP and Mambo. I wanted to go with TP but it looks like Mambo may be what I end up with. Thanks for any ideas.

I’m working on a commerical site right now which will probably use TXP; they’ve elected to go with Paypal’s shopping cart, which really makes this into a simple job.

My technique is to have products posted as articles, and use custom fields to store information about each product (price, weight, etc.) which can then be easilly passed to Paypal.
