php shopping cart in flash?

is it possible to include shopping cart functions inside a flash file? so if I have items to purchase online I can build an entire flash site, and include those features, instead of building lets say.. static php/asp files,

thanks

While it may be possible, its not at all a good idea. Flash isn't the proper medium for designing a website. Its great for adding bits of "flash" to a page, but horrible for actual use as a foundation. Big accessibility and usability nightmare.

You might want to look at a prepackaged solution like the popular OS Commerce (open-source).
