The company I work for is going to be creating the catalog to a small store
(~100 items). The customized catalog will include the front end that the
shoppers will use as well as the back end data entry.
We need shopping cart/checkout software, preferably PHP (since that is what
we will be using for our site) and uses MySQL as the database. We want to
be able to hook our customized software into the software package (ie we're
not using their data entry into the catalog). We don't want to be limited
to just one shopping cart/checkout software package and this may become a
product we use for more sites.
We have been forced to use a few products since the clients bought the
package themselves but I'm not real happy with any of them.
We do our own hosting.

Check out osCommerce (oscommerce.com), its open source, written in php, uses
mysql, and you should be able to hook into it pretty easily like you want.
My boss is a little biased against it. We converted a client from it a
couple of years ago. The replacement wasn't much better. I don't know
what version they were using of osCommerce, but the credit card numbers
were being stored in plain text in the db. While we were in the process
of converting but after taking over their hosting and we had to quick
get them to sign an agreement that we weren't responsible for credit
card information being stolen while they were using the old system.
If you know of a good review for osCommerce I can use to convince my
boss it is very much improved in the last 3 years, I'd appreciate it.
