Technology: VbzCart

Having evaluated osCommerce and found that, although it had many features I would like to have on vbz.net, it also lacked some crucial features currently needed (many of which are provided by the existing shopping cart system, and some of which would be needed in order to effectively manage porting the data from the existing system).

So I'm writing a new system, currently in PHP, loosely based on the data design of the existing VBZ cart system and adding new pieces as needed.

I'll be using HTYP for all documentation, as it is better suited for technical writing.
