[PHP Shopping Cart, Sent mail instead of Paypal]

Cool! They're similar,

[PHP Shopping Cart, Sent mail instead of Paypal]

I was hoping to clarify something, has this question got anything to do with php-cart-paypal OR Ajax Shopping Cart?

 

Do you perhaps have a file called checkoutCart.php

Not pretending to know anything about anything, just my 2cents...

[Fetch table data into pdf format]

1. In order for the code to work, the following line in your php.ini has to be uncommented:

extension=php_pdf.dll

2. For more information about PDFlib library check: PDF Functions

[PHP Shopping Cart, Sent mail instead of Paypal]

I like the concept, some cart tuts forget about the mail parts.

 

Using a well known mailer may be of use for servers that don't support or have mail disabled.

PHPmailer or Swiftmail are good options, will post some code when I get a chance to breathe, LOL - Like that's ever possible!
