Setup Guide : Adding a link to "Check Out"

You have basically two ways to add a "Check Out" link to your store.
- Note: These are basically 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 alignments problems. Here is an example:

<FORM
        METHOD="POST" ACTION="http://www.myshopcart.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 View Shopping Cart button.

<FORM
        METHOD="POST" ACTION="http://www.myshopcart.com/cart/shop.cgi">

        <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="merchant" VALUE="

Merchant_Name

">

        <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="secure"
        VALUE="yes">



        </FORM>

This is what the code above would look like:

The second method is to use a image and a link. And example of this would look like:

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

        Check Out

</a>

This is what the code above would look like:
