Testing Your SalesCart Web

To test your SalesCart website, you should publish it to your ISP's or WPP's web server and then view it with a browser.

  1. Publish your website to your ISP's Web Server.
  2. Open your Web browser such as Internet Explorer.
  3. In the Web Address field, enter your remote web address (or if you have a Personal Web Server installed on your local computer, you may review some of the first few checkout pages with your browser(s) at the local address http://localhost/name of site you created (example, http://localhost/test). See your PWS help files for additional information on setting up PWS.)
  4. This will bring you to the homepage of your website. Click Start Shopping.
  5. You will be linked to the SalesCart Lobby page.
  6. The Lobby page is the starting point of your site, listing the different product pages contained within your website. By having a starting point you can structure your product pages based on groups (such as category of products). You might choose to locate and customize this the way you want to later.
  7. Select Product Page #1, which will send you to the product page, edited earlier.
  8. Click the Add item/Add Product Link button from the SalesCart main menu.
  9. This brings you to the View Order page of your site where you can continue shopping, delete items from your order, or process your order (check-out).

From here, you can continue to test the SalesCart interface.
