Dose anyone know where (or even if) this is documented anywhere? I am interested in implementing my own 'purchase without an account' mod. But before diving into it, it would be useful to know what files are involved when you are checking out, what order they are called in etc. More importantly dependencies. I'm planning to make the simplest checkout possible and then have the system email the customer their account details after it send out the receipt email.

The best way is you go through the checkout process, and look in your browser what files are involved. This is the first level.

Then you need to open those files to look for others that are used there

Thats what I have been trying to do, but its not straightforward to follow. I guess I will just have to put trace messages in the template files for the checkout and see what appears when. I really need to find some kind of call graph program for PHP!
