here we go

</script>
</head>
<body>
<div align="center">
<script language="javascript">
document.write(parent.pagetitle);
</script>
</div>
<div align="center"><h2>Shopping Cart Contents</h2></div>
<p><div>To change the quantity of an item in your shopping cart, click on the quantity listed for that item. To delete an item, change the quantity for that item to zero.</div>
<p>
<script>parent.cartcookie.displayorder(this.document,true);</script>
<p>
<div align="center">
<a href="javascript:checkout();"><img src="./images/checkout.gif" hspace=0 vspace=0 border=0 alt="Click here to pay by credit cart."></a>
 
<a href="javascript:mailitin();"><img src="./images/mailorder.gif" hspace=0 vspace=0 border=0 alt="Click here to pay by check or money order."></a>
 
<a href="javascript:emptycart();"><img src="./images/emptycart.gif" hspace=0 vspace=0 border=0 alt="Click here to remove all items."></a>
</div>
<p>

Which i believe takes me here ...

formtag='<FORM name="checkoutform" method="post" action="orders.cgi">';
$mystylesheet = '<LINK REL=stylesheet HREF="' . $miscfiles . 'style.css" TYPE="text/css">';
$purchasegif='"' . $miscfiles . 'purchase.gif"';

print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";

What kind of webserver to you plan to run the CGI scripts through? I believe you have to be able to Telnet into the server to activate the CGI scripts...i think. If you are using a free server like Geocities, you most likely will not be able to.

dont know i said it but the plan is to use the shopping cart on my webpage when i get the doman later this month im only using the free space to view the webpages... appearance wise but as far as free server offering cgi access i knew that... i just wanted the code that would make it go to my e-mail address or a file on the server cuz reading throuhg it the only options i had were print out form and online credit card processing....;)
