Hm, you may want to consider the 'custom', 'amount', and 'on0'/'os0', 'on1'/'os1', and 'on2'/'os2' URL parameters documented here:

Thanks!

Yes, my real issue is importing all my products into Seller Admin. I have well over a thousand of them and they already are in my own database where I want to manage them.

A tab delimited import may be helpful but it will still be labor intensive since each product (photographic prints, for example) can be sold in several configurations and new ones are added every couple of weeks.

Instead of doing that, can I create a generic product in Seller Admin and generate dynamic links for each configuration?

For example, can I have one product called "Print" that doesn't have a set price. Instead, I will calculate the configuration and price on my site and pass the information dynamically to the cart so I later know how to fulfill the order?

PayPal has this option (a hidden field I can populate with whatever I want) but it will be nice to consolidate all my downloadable and non-downloadable products into one cart framework.

You may be interested in using our free "lite" service, FatFreeCart.com:
http://www.fatfreecart.com/code.html

Bear in mind that service is provided on a strictly do-it-yourself basis with no support whatsoever (that's a major reason it's free :^), so you'd be expected to set that up and troubleshoot any issues entirely on your own.

E-junkie cart button codes do not contain any product setting parameters, so you could really only use scripting to dynamically generate Cart button codes referencing each product's Item Number in Seller Admin, where all the actual product settings are managed.

If you have a lot of products to set up initially, we can provide a tab-delimited import template file where you would provide product specifications including custom Item Numbers, so your scripting could use those Item Numbers to generate the proper Add to Cart button for each product. A typical Add to Cart button for you would look like this, where XXXXX would be the product's Item Number in Seller Admin:

https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?c=cart&cl=134840&ejc=2&i=XXXXX" target="ej_ejc" class="ec_ejc_thkbx" onClick="javascript:return EJEJC_lc(this);">http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/ej_add_to_cart.gif" border="0" alt="Add to Cart"/>

However, due to the manual labor involved in importing, we can't really support this as a routine method of ongoing product maintenance; it's only a favor to help get your initial batch of products set up expediently. Email our support team for the import file and instructions if this would be useful for you:

Is there a way to generate dynamic "add to cart" links on my site (for non-downloadable products) without adding all of them to my E-Junkie catalog?

What I'm ultimately after is something I can pass the product name, sku, and price to and generate "add" links in real time rather than copying the static link generated by E-Junkie for each one.

Thanks,
Guy
