OK, so here's the deal. I've been trying for 2 days to find a piece of decent Shopfront type software written in PHP without much luck. Either the stuff I've been finding is crap, or it just doesn't work.
So if anybody can help me with this, it would be most appreciated.
This is what I am looking for:
* Open source
* It's gotta work right out of the box (you'd be surprised at how much just doesn't work - for instance, the install script never creates the tables, it just sits there looking pretty, or generates random errors that look like they're caused by bugs).
* An install script is a must (so many stuff does not have a simple install file written in PHP, meaning you can't install it unless you have SSH access to the server)
* It should ideally support SSL, and for security reasons store the credit card details in the database (the only piece of software that I've found that works stupidly sent out the credit card details via unencrypted email, saying that storing it in the database is illegal (how the big companies that do this can get away with it then is beyond me) and the author was too arrogant to see that sending credit card details over unencrypted email was a stupid idea).
* It must not require register_globals switched on in PHP
* The download must not be eleventy billion terrabytes big
