I am exploring options to enable a checkout on a website for a friend. The requirements for the checkout are seemingly simple. The product in question can be viewed here:

I have worked with PayPal and Google checkout to accomplish this, however the buy buttons only allow for 1 drop down menu with prices per product. What I need is to have the all the features elected by the customer to add up and proceed to the checkout with that price.
I have a thorough knowledge of HTML, CSS and Javascript, but I do not have a clue when it comes to server side stuff or eCommerce. Any help would GREATLY appreciated.
You might look at https://stripe.com/ - their API will let you set up your form however you'd like, and then have them do all the heavy lifting for the billing. You'll get a confirmation token back once the transaction completes, and can use that to deliver the product.
Check out the documentation to see if it'll work for you.

Bit of an odd question admittedly, hopefully someone will be able to help.
Background:
I am writing a small eCommerce website using Laravel, but due to restrictions of one of the product suppliers, I need to redirect the checkout of their products to their website which runs Magento.
Proposed Idea:
I want to be able to add the product to the cart on my website and then when they check out it redirects to their website and auto-fills their cart.
The only way I can think of to do this is to use Javascript to click the "add to cart" button on the supplier's corresponding page for each item. Obviously not ideal as it would have to launch each page which would seem troublesome with many items. Are there any other ways to accomplish this simply?
This will certainly not work as this sounds like a XSS Attack on your user. Your website can not execute any actions on another website in the background - at least as long there are no CORS headers to allow for that.
You need to find a way to submit the orders to your supplier via some kind of api. Please do not try to go your proposed way, this is a really bad idea.
I am trying to implement Stripe into my react native app to enable credit card usage, but I've become a little confused. Through my research I have gathered that stripe requires a token consisting of the card information to complete a transaction, and it seems that the way to do this on react native is by using Tipsi-Stripe. Tipsi does not have very thorough documentation so its hard to tell what its total purpose is. Their given project example seems to show that you can only create tokens through it unless using apple or android pay, but I feel like I am just missing something. Other tutorials mention use of a backend to make it work but the Tipsi documentation says nothing of a backend. So is Tipsi able to complete transactions without android and apple pay? I feel i have a fundamental misunderstanding of Stripe with rwact native and the limited documentation on using the two together is making it pretty hard to figure out. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks
I've just set up a website with much help from this site!
I have customers who buy items (through the PayPal interface that takes care of the credit card payments).
I have made invoices in LaTex, which I edit manually. The next step I want to take, is to learn how to get my website to pass the purchase information into my LaTex document so that the invoice is automatically generated, and automatically send a copy to the customer.
My question is just: what things should I be searching for to look in order to learn about this kind of thing? I don't know where to start. Would it be JavaScript that would do it?
You will probably need a backend language for that like NodeJS, PHP, Java etc.
Where i would start is look at the documentation of LaTex and see if they have API's to hook into to do what you want to do and go from there.
Usually if there are api's available they will come with examples to get you started.
Paypal and Stripe provides their own checkout.js. Client app/website integrates the checkout.js in their payment page to enable Paypal/Stripe payment button in their interface.
I want to know, if I had to design a similar checkout.js for a payment gateway, what are the things/components to look at? Is there any guidelines/ best practices available on the internet on this? And, is checkout.js really a efficient solution to enable client apps integrate with your payment solution? If not, is their any alternate / better way?
As is the case any time you decide to blaze your own trail when handling sensitive information like credit card details and passwords- proceed with extreme caution. One simple slip-up or oversight could potentially leak your customer's card details to the "bad guys". In short- don't do it.
If you're still trying to create your own checkout solution after considering the above advice, Stripe's documentation on how to use and customize their Checkout form is a great place to start.
Anecdotally, I can vouch for the effectiveness and ease-of-use of Stripe's checkout plugin.
I need to propose a method for providing Help Text for the end users of a Web Application my company supports. Basically we want to have an area(s) on a Web Page where users can click or hover over and provide them with relevant Help so they don't have to refer back to the User Manual.
What we want to accomplish is to have all Help Text be populated to and read from a database so that it can be updated easily. We then need a way to identify which Web Pages and areas on a particular Web Page will need the corresponding and relevant Help text.
Has someone accomplished this through their own design and cares to share? or is there a commercial application out there that performs this very function?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
