Jul 28, 2004 4:14 pm		re: Need script to calculate shipping and tax
David Carr		Question 1 yes it can be done without registering with paypal and is only available for US accounts. select the "My Account" tab, the "Profile" sub-tab, under "Website Payment Prefereneces". Scroll down - its at the bottom, titled "PayPal Account Optional". Question 2 Check out the following link: http://members.aol.com/paypalhelper/simpship.html Here is a free 3rd party cart. This might help with the tax since Paypal does not handle local tax. http://members.aol.com/paypalcart/index1.html The above links are not endorsed by me or tested. Do a search on Google for 3rd party carts that work with paypal.. > Jeff Cline wrote: > I have already set up a client with PayPal buttons (a button for each of 5 colors). They want to allow the web site visitor/customer to pay by credit card. I have searched through the archives on here to find my answers (which by the way is a great way for any novices to learn a great deal before posting questions). Found some answers, but a few remain. > >Question 1 > >Can a web site visitor/customer pay through the PayPal system without registering with PayPal?

I imagine a shopping cart script would be the answer but I do not know if I have to use one supplied by the hosting company (which it appears they do not provide one). Who on this list uses a stand-alone third party shopping cart that will do that? Client is on a budget so price is an issue. Or do you know of another script that I can use to calculate shipping and tax? > >The end goal - using LinkPoint Connect, to be able to pass a single number as the total to charge the web site visitor/customer and also deal with multiple quantity orders. > >Thank you for taking the time to read all the way down here. > >Jeff Cline >(310) 641-7133 Private Reply to David Carr (new win)
