The Shopping Cart - It's a killer

[yafreax]

Here's what i need; Simply Stated: A Shopping Cart, Internal to Filemaker (no web is necessary) for mulitple customers with items being customer specific

Here's what i envision for the customer. Comes in enters Customer Name and a Password. This takes them to a list type view of all of thier items available for order. Each item includes a Thumbnail picture, the Item Name, a quantity field with set quantities that they must choose from, and descriptions etc. . .

Problem is i can't find a reasonable, effecient way for both the customer side and the admin side to be user friendly. . . if someone knows of a previously made solution that i can take a look at or if you know of some starting tips, tricks and advice, please, bring it on.

I just can't wrap my brain around this one, probably because i've been out of practice of anything difficult for quite a while. Please advise.

Maybe start by having a "cart" table/database which tracks a user session and has line items which are the goods being selected.

Hope this helps.
