ENTERMEDIA e-commerce development may range in complexity from a) simple carts that allow for an item to be added to a basket to start the checkout process to b) providing additional features that an Internet merchant can use to fully manage an online store (storefront plus admin layer components). E-commerce development includes identifying session parameters, proper use of cookies or query strings, facilitating basket vs. checkout functions, capturing client’s payment information within a secure payment gateway (e.g. PayPal), email notification logic, implementation of licensed or hosted shopping cart software (e.g. Zen Cart, Magento), or custom development of ’shopping cart’ applications for your specific web offering (order submittal, completion of transactions, shipping, taxation, discount codes, etc.).

Flash is an important tool to support online experience but developers must address usability concerns and accessibility issues prior to deployment.
