Re: building an e-commerce webpage?
Gosh. Find a *package* first. I've built a couple of e-commerce sites from scratch, and you'd be amazed at how complicated they are. I only recommend it if the client wants a *very* oddball set up or has unique requirements. If its just, "I have a catalog, I have prices, I have discounts, I have customers, they come back," you're much better off with a packaged solution. Now that being said, I don't have any favorites among the dozens out there, and it will mostly have to do with what you want to do. Also, if its "customizable" (as opposed to being a plug-in libary), pick the language base you're most familiar with. There are lots of people who will say "*Never* use ASP" but if that's what you know, don't let them talk you into learning PHP as a requirement for getting paid for this project.
Good luck!
