Shopping Carts

As someone who had to write a custom shopping cart using fpCGI, my
experience was that this is very difficult to write robust code for,
especially if you have a filepro based invoicing system that it needs
to act in concert with (unless all your invoicing system is CALLs to
modules, which is very unlikely).

IMHO by far the easiest thing to do would be to get something off the
shelf with a real database for the backend, and then simply export
from it to file(s) and get filepro to import web orders from that.
