Need Zen Cart Objects in non-zen cart web pages

Hello

I need some Zen Cart elements on php pages outside the Zen Cart directory tree. For instance, on a "normal" non-zen cart php webpage I need an option to"buy now" that will take the user directly to their zen shopping cart populated with an order of qty 1 of said item. Right now all the link does is bring them to a page that says that their cart is empty, although the link URL is formatted to "add_item".

I also need to embed Zen Cart prices from the database into non-zen cart pages.

What headers will make this possible?

After reading other related posts this appears to be another "session-dependent" zen-like "feature" :)

Zen appearantly does not exist outside the PHP-session continuum... :lamo:

No. I had a look at his code but had errors when I tried to use the same php requires directly in non-zen cart pages. Like a couple others who have complained about this in the past, I don't need a sidebox. I need to go directly from a non-zencart page to a zen shopping caart populated with the default qty ("1") for login and checkout. I need to embed zen cart info anywhere in non-zencart php. Basic stuff like that.

DrByte has updated this to also work in centerboxes, i.e.without (side)box formatting.
