I would be a bit careful about that ... in most, if not all, cases when you upgrade software versions (same product, newer version), you are still required to have/own the version you upgraded from. Some software will not install unless you either have the previous version installed, or can supply the serial number(s).

The latest version(s) of FrontPage is a lot better than the earlier ones, but I agree that unless you know what you are doing your site may become browser specific.

To do what you're talking about properly, you should really have a "shopping cart". These vary from free to mega bucks :wink:  and as has been said before, to do it properly you should look to avoid "free" webspace. If it doesn't contain popups, etc it will unlikely guarantee a very good/stable environment.

Sorry to be slightly brutal, but if you don't know what you're doing, then you possibly shouldn't do it at all. It's one thing to do a website about you/your cat/your car, but a site that is there to sell stuff needs to be done correctly :wink:

I don't tend to use this forum to publicise my professional self - but websites is my day job (see the link in my sig) :wink:

Oi, what you say'in about my sites?  :lol:

I do have to agree agree about Frontpage being tailored towards IE browsers and you have to make sure that the host server accepts Frontpage Extentions for some parts to work correctly.

I suggested Frontpage cos I found it easier to get my head round the workings of it, although I've not played with Dreamweaver that much and for someone just starting to play with website building then I think it's a good base.  :wink:

Just what you're used to I suppose. :mrgreen:
