Use of old shopping cart code with Joomla extension e.g. Vir - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support


i converting old static website http://www.lallans.co.uk singing , dancing joomla 2.5 version temporarily here http://www.quivis.co.uk/lallans owners publish magazine twice year , produce cds. current cd catalogue lists 130 titles more come. sell issues of magazine , cds on website.

the static site uses worldpay process payments.

i know nothing commerce, online payments etc. have installed virtuemart all. have not implemented use. looks fiendishly complicated. see others posting alternatives vm , see advice follows. now;

1. need complex virtuemart handle purchase of magazines (see http://quivis.co.uk/lallans/index.php/lallans) or cds (e.g. here http://quivis.co.uk/lallans/index.php/scotsoun/scots-language) ?

i have extracted of payment code static website. here sample.

code: select all

<form method="post" action="cgi-bin/shop.pl" target="paypal" onsubmit="paypal=window.open('cgi-bin/shop.pl','paypal','width=680,height=360,status=yes,location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');paypal.focus();"><font face="arial" size="4">&nbsp;</font><b><font color="#000000" face="arial" size="2">001 robert fergusson (3 cds)</font></b><br><font face="arial" size="5">&nbsp;</font><font face="arial" size="2">£25.00 qty </font><input style="font-size:10" name="qty" size="1" value="1" type="text">&nbsp;<input style="font-size:10" value="buy" name="b1" type="submit">
&nbsp;<input style="font-size:10; background-color: #0000ff; color: #ffffff;" value="view order" name="b1" type="submit">
<input name="bn" value="" type="hidden">
<input name="id" value="sscd 001,006,007 - 3 cds" type="hidden">
<input name="add_to_order" value="001 robert fergusson (3 cds)" type="hidden">
<input name="item_price" value="25.00" type="hidden">
<input name="weight" value="" type="hidden"></form>


on clicking 'buy' button new window opens shopping cart. assume payment in way handled on worldpay's server how apparently manage things. (i mystified references paypal. there 572 on 1 page none worldpay! , yet owners of website not apparently have paypal account.)

2. if copy , paste payment codes e.g. above, relevant individual magazine , cd articles materially assist and/or save me time? can used e.g. virtuemart? or oter system or better off in long run starting scratch?

3. if virtuemart best game in town, know of tutorial?!

thanks advice.
