Product Description:

QDCat will produce the html/javascript files for a website product catalogue, 
allowing the listing and calculation of orders including delivery costs and
tax. It also produces an order form which can be printed, or utilise CGI
to email the details or hook into a custom system. Alternatively, the
catalogue will integrate into a number of internet payment systems
including

The resulting output uses frames to split the screen into two or three areas - 
index, item, and optionally the order. Having the third frame is optional when 
creating the html catalogue.

The catalogues can be easily linked to WorldPay, Authorize.Net, and a
number of other on-lin credit card payment systems.

The program runs on Windows 95/98/NT/2000, and the resulting catalogues have been 
tested on Internet Explorer 3.02 and above, and Netscape Navigator version 3 and 
above.

The best way to see what the program can do is to install it by running
qdtrial.exe. Then start QDCat and produce a catalogue from the example. This 
is set up when you start QDCat.
