The next step

I know how to work with swish and photoshop and I can use GoLive or Dreamwaever for other site design, but how do I add a shopping cart and make the site able to accept credit card transactions? Is there software to purchase? Is it difficult to add these features? Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

Well usually depend on your server unix/linux or whatever that runs different scripts/programs I think when I went to http://www.cgi-resources.com I saw a list of scripts for online shopping, etc. you probably have to pay for them and depend on what kind server you run go find the nessessary scripts, I don't really know a lot, but cgi/perl script works, maybe php/cold fusion??

By the way this thread belongs to client side or serverside question section :D

www.oscommerce.com is free, and pretty good i guess.

Yeah that seems really cool. It looks like its written in php, so you will need a host that uses php, most likely Apache w/ php. Probably needs a database, which would most likely be mySQL with the above servers. Since its a package it should be simple to install. I'm sure Someone around here could help you if you have a problem.
