Fast and Easy Checkout (FEC) combines the payment and shipping checkout pages into one page for a shortened checkout process. It can also simulate the checkout confirmation page making a seemlingly one page checkout.

This commercial add-on for Zen Cart uses the Highslide JS script written in JavaScript by Torstein Hønsi.

Highslide JS is an open source JavaScript software, offering a Web 2.0 approach to popup windows. It streamlines the use of thumbnail images and HTML popups on web pages. The library offers these features and advantages:

• No plugins like Flash or Java required.
• Popup blockers are no problem. The content expands within the active browser window.
• Single click. After opening the image or HTML popup, the user can scroll further down or leave the page without closing it.
• Compatibility and safe fallback. If the user has disabled JavaScript or is using an old browser, the browser redirects directly to the image itself or to a fallback HTML page.

The Zen Cart version of this module allows Zen Cart websites to display main and additional product images with Highslide. Additional functions have been created so that other images can also use Highslide other than product images. For an example of this, see the main image on the Numinix homepage.

This module for Zen Cart transforms your shopping cart page into a dynamic form using AJAX. In addition, the module also adds a feature for customers to enter coupon codes from the shopping cart page. Traditionally, this could only be performed on the checkout page and required customers to login/register before seeing the discount amount. Now customers will see the discount in advance and be more likely to proceed with the checkout procedure

Features

• Dynamically remove products from the shopping cart.
• Dynamically update products in the shopping cart.
• Order total updates automatically with each change.
• Shipping Estimator updates automatically with each change.
• Add or remove coupons dynamically.
• Falls back to html form posts if JavaScript is disabled.
• Completely admin configurable
• Dynamically add products to the cart from the product info pages and all product listing pages (featured_products, products_new, and products_all)

Benefits

• Increase customer registrations and ultimately conversion rates
• Faster/smoother shopping experience
• Decrease load on the server and client computers

The Categories Center Box Module allows Zen Cart websites to display categories within a center box on the main page of their website. It uses the same classes and ids as other center boxes within a store's Zen Cart template. For an example, simply browse to the main page of the Numinix website and you will see the Categories Center Box Module displayed nicely on our front-page for easy browsing through our site's categories.
