That's all well and good if your nerdfu is strong enough to pull such an implementation off. However, I'm a machinist not a programmer. It's all I can do to keep a simple HTML website up and running. I'm just using PayPal buttons and their generic shopping cart setup, and I barely understand THAT. Going to anything more complex is pretty much a nonstarter for me. Everything runs on a shoestring around here, so I can't just pay someone to do it for me either. If I can't do it myself, it just don't get done. There's no reason this cannot work. I've been using this method for close to fifteen years and it's been fine. Now suddenly it's an unreliable method? Come on. When things are working, I wish they'd stop trying to "improve" them. More often than not, "improve" in practice actually means "break". When stuff ain't broke, don't go fixing it until it is.
