Thanks I had looked at those proposals. It seems Zapcart was the only
practical result of the discussion? Even though it worked, Zap is now
abandoned, right?
A simple order page and checkout buttons would achieve the basic goal
without too much complexity. It would also be fairly straightforward to
tally the weight of selected items or use a flat per item, or per
shipment, charge for shipping.
I could do this in Perl, but would need a while to write it in PHP.
However the main obstacle is knowing how pmwiki works. I have been
pondering whether to create a standalone script which could be called by
a pmwiki form and store data in separate files. The good part would that
it would not be affected by code changes to pmwiki in the future and
could work work with other apps too. The downside is that it does not
integrate as nicely with pmwiki.
