Uhhh...you mean an online shop, right? Well, don't know if this question is in the right forum, really...we handle HTML questions here...however, I think Wes has a good online shop on his site...www.texastwisted.com...and I think there is something in the FAQ on this...

These are the FAQ topics WS is talking about:

Thanks kuckus...I just knew there was something on this in the FAQ...

phortay: Points at kuckus' links. You should probably look at osCommerce first. I've thrown in links which will allow you to build your own solution (shopping cart from one place, credit card evaluation from another, etc.) but osCommerce offers a one stop, Open Source, PHP solution solution which should work out of the box.

Anyway have a read and keep us informed on your progress - such solutions and cheap PHP, MySQL hosting will mean that even small business can set up their own online store pretty cheaply (although they should bear in mind that they also need to focus on making sure the goods turn up on time, etc.).
