Is there a way...

Hi,

I want to add links external to zen cart and integrated into my site that allow me to perform the "add to cart" function.

In other words I would have a page in my website which describes my product and I want the user to be able to click an "Add To Cart" link that takes them to the shopping cart and adds the product to their cart.

I know I can link to the page in the cart where the product is shown, but I want to take that one step further.

Is it just a matter of using the same form wrapper and INPUT fields that are used on the product page of the shopping cart?

Here's the code I've tried but it doesn't work - just opens a blank page...The form is copied from the shopping cart product page. I changed the "text" input to a hidden field.

														<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
	function doSubmit()
	{
		document.cart_quantity.submit();
	}
	</script>

														<form name="cart_quantity" action="http://dungenessgold.com/shoppingcart/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=1&amp;products_id=1&amp;action=add_product" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
														

	<input type="hidden" name="cart_quantity" value="1" maxlength="6" size="4" /><input type="hidden" name="products_id" value="1" />
													

	<a href="javascript:doSubmit()" target="_blank">Add To Cart</a>

														</form>

Zen Cart isn't a back-end. It's more complicated than a mere "add to cart".
