OK now you're starting to scare me, 'cos I'd imagined that I could set up
some sort of PhP catalogue by following some tutorials, doing the minimum
to get it up and running, and then 'perfect' it by learning what I needed.
But it looks like I was wrong. I need to learn the whole thing before I
can even begin to do this, don't I? OK, next question: is there such a
thing as a PhP script that I can download, to 'drop in' to my site? The DB
itself is bog-standard, users, stock etc.
