Clarification on for customization to an Indian Portal

[rama]

Hi,

I am relatively new to php and jquery, if the questions are very basic, pardon my ignorance..

Basically I am evaluating shopping carts software and then I have to integrate the chosed shopping cart for an Indian Portal where the major requirements are

1) Payment by Credit card, Debit card (Paypal is not encouraged though not completely takenout) i.e VISA and Master: Paypal from Presto allow Creditcard payments. Apart from this Presto does not seems to support debit card , local credit card etc. Please correct me if I am wrong. The possible solution is to check with payment merchandizers. Apart from this any ideas please?

2) Customization of themes through css so that it matches the existing portal display/presentation: I think this is possible through presto. Any light on this, please?

3) Possibility of video play/pause/stop as part products display. Is it possible? The present portal uses Flex heavily along with Java. Any flex related animation/video would be ideal though not compulsory.

From technical point of view, it looks like no MVC is used architecturally. Would that be an hindrance in integrating with existing code of the portal.

Lat but not least, the software is fast, highly intuitive. Thanks to the originators, comunity

Thanks
Rama

Hi Rama,

RE: 2) Yes it is possible to change the looks, colour and structure(to some extent) by editing global.css file. for identifying which CSS property applies to what you can use Firebug or web developer toolbar plugin on firefox.

for advanced edit or structural changes you will have to learn how to edit/create .tpl files (Smaty template engine files).
