Remote Cart : Setup Guide : Adding a link to "Check Out"

You have basically two ways to add a "Check Out" link to your store. These are essentially the same as the "View Shopping Cart" link.

The first method is to use a standard form tag.

This can be used under most circumstances but can lead to alignment problems. Here is an example:

<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="http://www.remotecart.com/cart/shop.cgi">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="merchant" VALUE="Merchant_Name">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="secure" VALUE="yes">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="checkout" VALUE="Check Out">
</FORM>

This is what the code above would look like: You can also use an image in place of the plain Check Out button.

<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="http://www.remotecart.com/cart/shop.cgi">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="merchant" VALUE="Merchant_Name">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="secure" VALUE="yes">
<INPUT ALIGN="middle" TYPE="image" NAME="checkout"
 SRC="http://www.your-domain.com/image.gif">
</FORM>

This is what the code above would look like:

The second method is to use a image and a link.

An example of this would look like:

<a href="http://www.remotecart.com/cart/shop.cgi?merchant=Merchant_Name&checkout=yes&secure=yes">
<img src="http://www.your-domain.com/image.gif" border="0"></a>

This is what the code above would look like:

You can also just add a text link. An example of this would look like:

<a href="http://www.remotecart.com/cart/shop.cgi?merchant=Merchant_Name&checkout=yes&secure=yes">
Check Out</a>

This is what the code above would look like:
