Extension to Create Custom E-Commerce Application

[daveroberts1]

Hello --

I am about to design my first e-commerce website. First I must emphasize that
I am not a web programmer. I do not do any coding. I create websites within
Dreamweaver. I am looking for an extension to Dreamweaver that will enable me
to create a custom e-commerce website for my client. I have already become
familiar with asp.net. However, my client wants me to use PHP to design her
site. She wants her site to look very similar to [url]http://www.westelm.com[/url] . I
was going to use Cartweaver to create an asp shopping cart connected to an
Access database. Are there any similar programs for creating PHP shopping
carts? I would like the program to do as much of the work for me as possible,
yet still allowing for customization. It is important that each product must
have multiple styles to choose from... so this is not just a list of products
with prices. It is more complex. It also needs to have a back-end
administration area. Is there an extension I can purchase for Dreamweaver that
will help me create a custom shopping cart for my client? Please let me know.

There are a couple PHP shopping solutions from [url]http://www.interaktonline.com[/url]
If you google "PHP shopping carts" .. there are probably a lot more.

Hello daveroberts1,

As Nancy mentioned the one from InterAKT MX Shop is excellent. If you would
like to see a couple examples I have used it with check out the links below:

Hockey Team Online Store
[url]http://www.wltimberwolves.com/index.php?mod=store[/url]

or Leonas Love Shack (Warning: Adult Toy Store - No porn though and tastefully
done)
[url]http://www.leonasloveshack.com[/url]

The second one is done completely with MX Shop alone. The Hockey Shop one
is heavily customized using other InterAKT products but still mainly MX Shop
for the store part of the site.

Hi yea Brad,
I really like the [url]http://www.leonasloveshack.com[/url] site, I would never have
guessed that Belgium Chocolate Body Paint would have made the best selling
list.

lol

Kenny
