FMP4 Shopping Cart Solution?

[CaelC]

Hello, I need to add "Shopping Cart" capabilities to my online store that is currently hosted inside FMP4. Should I use a standard shopping cart program or should I build one somehow in Filemaker?

All of my items are unique and I want the current DB to automatically update with "Sold" information immediately upon a transacted sale.

Can anyone help? I really appreciate it!

CaelC,

I would be interested to see the answer to this also. Particularly that same "Sold" part you spoke about.

FileMaker is capable to do almost anything. The question is time and skills available.

I did it and it is no big problem

It's often easier and faster to modify an existing solution than to invent one yourself...

I'd start hacking into the shopping cart that ships with FMP4 -- after making a backup of course!
