keep repeating the PCI DDS acronym without knowing what it means.

PCI - Payment Card Industry
DSS - Data Security Standards

There is no DDS in this, the same way that there's no HIPPA.

On another note, there's a reason why there's no free open source PHP
shopping cart. When you get to develop one that's PCI-DSS compliant,
you'll know what I mean.

If you really want to get into this, the PCI-DSS standards are well
described on the official website, https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org
and it's no generic information.

Once you get familiar with the requirements, (please download the PDFs)
and develop a fully compliant free open source PHP shopping cart, please
do post here and we'll be glad to spread the word.
