Can I use AscToHTM to build a web site with a shopping cart?
By itself, no. AscToHTM can only really produce relatively “static”, mostly-text web pages. To add any dynamic contents and graphics you’d effectively need to add the relevant HTML yourself, so the answer is essentially “no”. Adding a shopping cart is actually fairly tricky. You either have to install the software yourself, or sign up with an ISP that will do this for you. Most such systems require a database (of items being sold). Having not dealt much with such systems myself I can’t really advice on a web authoring tool (which is what AscToHTM is) that would integrate seamlessly with a shopping cart system. My advice would be to identify an ISP that offers shopping cart functionality and see what methods they offer for web authoring. I wish you luck.
