I've been exploring various options to upgrade my Paypal shopping cart on my website so I can accept payments via other methods, including through Google Checkout. 

I know there are reports of bugs in the GC add-on, but I'd like to explore the option of using OSCommerce for my website cart.

Is there a step-by-step installation tutorial?  My husband, who handles the technical stuff, looked at it and got confused, as this is not something he's worked with before.

Thanks in advance...
I'd suggest ZenCart instead and waiting for a stable Google Checkout mod, but..

Try this for osCommerce. 18 flash tutorials outlining each step: http://www.demodemo.com/tutorials_osc.html

That's an option too - I'm flexible at this point - is there a good tutorial for Zen Cart?

Appreciate the help!

The forums on the osC and Zen sites have lots of information too.
Great, my husband will have homework Thumbsup

If you decide to go with osCommerce tell him to look at the CREloaded version ( www.creloaded.com ).  It has several modifications (additional features) preinstalled...including the one you'll like the most: EZPopulate (spreadsheet bulklister.  You'll be able to load your entire inventory in a few minutes).

If you use the regular version of osCommerce or ZenCart you'll have to install EZPopulate after installing the main program.

OOOHHH - that is definitely something that I'd want - I'll point him in that directly, thanks
