was released on 28th March
1999, an on-line shopping cart system, based upon the well-received
free shopping cart scripts, JShop. Because it's written in Javascript,

the
need for calls to the server, making JShop one of the faster shopping
systems around. In fact, the only part of JShop that needs any server
side activity is for the form processing CGI script that sends you the
order at the end of the process. Not free .

response-o-matic.com/ handle your forms by sending you an email
response when forms are processed. No CGI.
