[development] Trying to integrate drupal with zen cart

[Gordon Heydon]

Hi,

I don't think it is that hard, but really you are going to be setting up
your site twice, and have 2 versions of your theme, plus some code to
integrate users/sessions.

Depending on what you want, e-Commerce or ubercart should do what you want.

If you want to find out more about e-Commerce you can grab me in the
#drupal-ecommerce IRC channel
