How do I add a simple shopping cart to my website?

There must be an easier way to do this. I am designing my wesite using
Publisher 2007. I'm trying to add a Pay PAl shopping cart and it appears to
me that by the time I enter all of the HTML code, I will need about 40 pages
to get all of my products on there. Maybe i'm just not getting the whole
concept. I understand how to use the code. But, wouldn't it be easier if they
just had some sort of general order form that would get submitted to Pay Pal?

PayPal is by far the simplest. You don't have to deal with security issues
or getting your own cc merchant account.

I've heard ZenCart is pretty good, but have never used it myself.

Are you using an Add to Cart form or Add to Cart button? The latter
doesn't use much code at all.

I believe that it is an add to cart form. I will try the other. It just seems
complicated when trying to set it up from Pay Pal's website. Thanks.
