I've been asked to build a website for a company that wants to sell their product not only in their store, but also online. Such a website requires a lot of attention, careful planning and coding. The thing is though, i've never build such a site before and i don't really want to fully write something that someone else already wrote at least in part (in other words i don't want to reinvent the wheel). In any case, any suggestions on where to start, where to go, what payment system to use(i.e. if there is a big difference between all those payment systems out there). Any prewritten code i can use, but i would like to keep it proffesional and nongeneric. Im definately using PHP as the base language, but i still don't know which database i will have to use since i'm not the one who gets to descide...
Any suggestions would be really great!
Thanks in advance...
P.S. Can't wait for PHP 5 to come out, from all that i read about it's supposed to be awesome!!!
