Mush easier to read WITH the leading zero - At 1280x1024 I can't ACTUALLY see the decimal point!

Now for some real suggestions: If you really really do mean a one-off payment, Paypal may be the simplest answer... If you mean many one-off payments, any of the shopping carts should work. You could also consider a MONEY ORDER or REGISTERED CHECK. I have used oscommece but never attempted a one payment like a subscription charge. H. Now it sounds like you want a recurring charge. I dunno about oscommerce, but you should be able to set up a recurring charge with the back-end just by flipping a button somewhere -- The bank then hands you a token sort of deal which lets you cancel the subscription payments, but not do much more with it, so you needn't store the CC# to maintain state. -- Some people have a gift link here.
