CanadaCart.ca SE v4.0 : Technical Overview

How It Works

Setting up your CanadaCart.ca SE v4.0 Shopping Cart is easy:
  1. Log in to your account Control Panel.
  2. Enter Your store information (email addresses, store URL etc.)
  3. Add product to your store.
  4. Set Payment methods you want to accept from customers.
  5. Set Tax rates appropriate for your Province or State and regions you will ship to.
  6. Set Shipping Methods based on Item Charges, Order Total, Item Weight, Flat Rate or Percentage of Total.
  7. Set Checkout Appearance of your shopping cart using graphics and colour to follow your web site's look and feel.
  8. Copy the "Add to Cart" code we generate for you.
  9. Paste code into your site


Adding the "Add to Cart" button to your web site is painless:

When a buyer clicks the "Add to Cart" button, the item is added to their shopping cart. They are presented with a screen displaying the contents of their Shopping Cart, including the item just added. To complete the purchase, the buyer clicks "Checkout".

To add an "Add To Cart" button or Text Link to your site, you can.

  1. Log-in to your Administration Control Panel
  2. Select the product you are wishing to add to your site
  3. Select the HTML Links tab
  4. Copy the auto-generated code
  5. Paste the code into your site.

Once you add the code to your site, you will never have to add it again, even if you change prices or product descriptions. It's that easy.

A sample of what the code looks like is:

<input type="button" value="Add to cart" onclick="document.location='http://cancart.net/SE4/cart.php?target=product&action=buynow&product_id=16133&category_id='">

Pasting the above code into your web site would generate a button that looks like this:

A simple Text Link would look like this: Add to cart

(without the text formatting. You control that)

What people will see is entirely up to you as to how you want to display that information. You have TOTAL DESIGN FREEDOM.
