X-Cart conversant

? We are looking for a web person who is conversant with X-Cart, and its function. X-Cart has already been installed on our sever. We intend to use our own HTML pages, but need a code to allow our pages to link to X-Cart's shopping cart page, which we also want to modify. Also, we would like to utilize X-Cart's data base search engine, but want it to work off of our static HTML pages; this may involve an “embedded?? link to a search page or a link to a completely different page that accesses the data base and throws out the appropriate link or some other existing method. Anyway, we will be doing our own site creation, but need help with incorporating X-Cart's functionality onto our site.
