Ready to use shopping cart with payment built in

    I can only manage basic html and am looking for a hosting package that has simple to build shopping carts with payment functionality (e.g. paypal, worldpay, etc) built in.

    I don't need anything complex, will have a mximum of 20 items to sell but need to capture specific order info at the time of purchase.

    Anyone have some helpful advice?

    Thanks

    What server side language are you looking for? What country are you in?

    I am in UK, using hostgator (I think its a windows platform). Some others have suggested cubcart so I am going to take a look at it.

    If it is Windows - chances are you might be able to use ASP. Usually ASP is better served on Windows. PHP can be installed on Windows though and ASP can be installed on *NIX.

    You can use third party shopping carts like zencart or oscommerce

    I would recommend osCommerce. It allows you to sell physical and digital goods. There are some drawbacks such as not a clear separation from code and html but there is a lot of support out there to help someone new to the program. I've used it for a few sites and I often customize certain features for clients which you can easily do for yourself if you are so inclined.:)

    i would recommend: cubecart

    www.cubecart.com

    it is one of the easiest and most user friendly carts i have ever used, plus it has quite a vibrant community on hand ready to help if anything goes wrong or you need some help.

    it is free to use and recently been tested by a top net security firm to remove any chances of it being exploited by hackers and the like.

    i use it on a couple of stores and out of the box it is a great tool to use. paypal module is as standard and takes 2 minutes to setup.
