Create Shop Page
You can create your shop page using the wizard or using any good HTML editor.
Wizard: The wizard create your basic shopping cart page with the correct values. You will still need to use an HTML editor to make minor changes to finish the page. If you check Options then the detail option values must be entered manually.  Click on the "Create Shop Page" in the administration menu.
Images: All images by default are placed in the images sub folder. Do not use spaces in the file name. Recommend thumbnail size is under 12K and larger images is under 50K.

There is 1 default image in the images folder called "add.gif". Do not delete this image but you can change it if you wish.
 
Create shopping cart order web page:
To place an item in your shopping cart you need to send the correct product information to the cart using FORM input values. You design your web page using your own web editor. All item information for each item is between the FORM statement and a SUBMIT button. The web page sends the product information to the cart by "hidden" or user selectable statements. For a sample you can create a page using the wizard.

When your web page is in the parent folder (/shop is a sub folder), then the Form should Post to  :
<form action="shop/chadd.asp" method="post">
 
There are Required values and Optional values. 
The "name" must be exactly as shown.
The "quantity" can be an input box or a "hidden" value.

Required values:
<input type="hidden" name="item" value="Black and Decker Drill">
<input type="hidden" name="price" value="29.95">
<input type="hidden" name="quantity">

Optional values:
<input type="hidden" name="itemID" value="UPC 634398492885">
<input type="hidden" name="optionA">
<input type="hidden" name="optionB">
<input type="hidden" name="optionC">
<input type="hidden" name="weight" value="5">
<input type="hidden" name="shipamount" value="2.75">

Depending on which HTML editor you use you may need to insert these "hidden" lines with a text editor, like Notepad. Many WYSIWYG editors do not place multiple FORM and SUBMIT button on one page so you may need to manually edit this.

ItemID - this could be the product ID, SKU or Model number etc. This will display on the checkout page. If you track inventory sold then you must use a unique itemID for each product you have.

OptionA, OptionB, OptionC - names to use for options offered.
Weight - if you calculate shipping by weight, you will need this for each item.
ShipAmount - if you calculate individual shipping costs, add this for each item.
 
Advanced: To set the Variable Option prices on a HTML page.
Each Option value can have a different price. The Option price is relative to the main item price. All you need to do is to add to the "value" statement "=" and then "2" or what ever number for the price difference. This number can be a plus or minus number. Do not use spaces. For example:

<select size="1" name="OptionA">
<option>Normal Basket</option>
<option value=" Red Flowers=2"> Red Flowers plus $2.00</option>
<option value="No Basket=-5">No Basket less $5.00</option>
<option value="Deluxe Basket=10">Deluxe Basket Add $10</option>
</select>

The option "value" is "Red Flowers=2". You added the "=2".
