There are many payment processing script/classes/examples available that you could use. Just google around for your gateway provider, like PHP and Authorize.net, etc, or go to their site and look for a developer, API or something like that to see if they have done some examples.

It really looks like I will have to write this myself :( I know it will be good for experience but like someone else has pointed out, I would rather work with someone elses code for the payment parts knowing that it has been totally debugged than getting screwed later on because I missed assigning a value to a variable... Still searching though, tested OSC,ZenCart, Xcart,FishCart, now on to phpshop... Drupal seems good, but kinda large with all the modules out there... a bit intimidating, will keep that as a "reserve check" I think this is the reason why there are so many "carts " out there people just get pissed seaching for a simple one which they can use their _own_ page design, and dont find it... then they write one for themselves, see it works very well, decide to go commercial... get requests to add "just one more thing" and screw it up like all the others..!
