So i've pretty much spent the day trying to learn about building an ecommerce site just in case a client wants one and i came across oscommerce... i installed it and got it up just to be sure that i could but now i got a few things i'm unsure of... if i understand it correctly, once i got it installed i would then need to setup a payment module like paypal so that payments could be processed? or is that something the client needs to worry about? or is there a better way to go building a site for a client who wants an ecommerce site? lol i feel like i just watched too many video tutorials and read too many articles and i'm still confused...
Any ecommerce script you use (and there are many) will need some sort of payment module setting up which will involve your client sorting out some details or another in order to receive payments, what that payment module is (paypal, google checkout, nochex etc) will require some direction/interaction with your client to sort out.
