I realize questions have been asked frequently about online webstore/shopping cart sources. I've checked out both oscommerce and zen cart, and they both seem great, but oscommerce is far too bloated with features for the limited functionality I need, and zen cart doesn't seem to support the payment gateways I'd like.

Does someone have a recommendation for a vary basic web store? It's for a site for an artist/licensor who would like to sell some of her published items on her own site. It is not primarily a webstore, and the store part will function as a hybrid gallery/store.

Basically, here's all I need, no more no less:

- Customizable (to intergrate with existing site)
- An admin area that enables the client to add or remove products on her own
- Capability for about 30 items for sale (that's all)
- I would prefer to have a payment gateway for standard credit card processing and paypal, but mostly standard credit card processing (which, from what I can gather, zen cart does not offer)
- Integrated checkout (not one that takes you to a gateway's checkout page)

That's really all I need. It's really simple and low on features. What should I be looking at?
I have a very basic knowledge of php -- can't write it but can work my way around pre-written php.

ok. im getting more and more into this web-design thing and its just confusing me now.i'm not advanced but im not an idiot and until now i've usually been able to figure stuff out.
this RSS feed set up is really messing with me. i have a website (www.avivalaloca.com) and i have a blog on that site (http://avivalaloca.com/id5.html)
i want to use www.rssfwd.com so people dont have to look at my blog every day to see if i've posted, but i cant get it to work. if anyone knows of something that is better than rssfwd.com that'll do the same thing, then please let me know.

i believe what i need to do is get the orange "RSS" box to show up where i type in http://avivalaloca.com/id5.html (at the end of the website, i use safari).
how do i do that?
i've read websites and other tutorials and its a bit beyond me. if someone is willing to help me through the process and make sure it works and fix this "problem" for me i'd even be willing to pay a bit. i really need this set up before tuesday (may 22).

thank you and please feel free to email me (avivalaloca @ mac. com) with any ideas or just post here.

much appreciated!

this is the web page i am working on: http://robertmeyersdesign.com/awards.html

the section on the right is supposed to be a scrolling list. it works in Safari and looks great, but it's not working in firefox (and i haven't tested explorer yet). the list is pushed down and over to the right too far and doesn't scroll at all.

sidenote: the whole website was set up by an ex-intern who left on bad terms. i am just adding content and getting the site live, etc.

question: is this an easy fix? how can i make it work in other browsers?



this is what it looks like in Safari and is what it's supposed to look like:


this is what it looks like in firefox (and probably internet explorer)


help?

At least...I think it's with DIV tags. Basically, I'm in over my head, my programs aren't currently accessible (DreamWeaver etc) and I'm hoping someone might be able to help me.

I've been asked to help someone creating special scroll bars, the ones where you just have arrows that you hover over and the content scrolls on it's own (as opposed to having to have a physical bar which isn't always graphically appealing).

Here's an example of what I'm trying to figure out how to do: http://www.oni-one.com/

If you go that website and let it load, and then click on "Accessories" and then "Linens and Throws" you will notice that it has a scrolling option to show more linens, and the scrolls are two arrows that darken in colour when you scroll over them? I'm trying to figure out how to do something like that.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction? Give me some codes to try out or explain how it should be done so I can do some research?

Thanks!

The following does not work in IE7:

var workspace = document.getElementsByTagName("BODY")[0]
var table = document.createElement("TABLE");
var tr = document.createElement("TR");
table.appendChild(tr);
var td = document.createElement("TD");
td.innerText = 'hello';
tr.appendChild(td);
workspace.appendChild(table);


I thought this was something weird about IE, since it will create all sorts of other elements with no problem at all. But I checked and they even have a page on how to do it Here.

Firefox and Opera have no problems with it, provided you change innerText to innerHTML - a chance which still makes no difference in IE.

Anyone got any ideas?

Additionally - is there any way to see the *generated* source in IE7, as can be done using the Web Developer extension in Firefox?

Is there a script I can put into a folder on the Web-accessible part of my server that will ask 'username/password plzkthx ^_^' of anyone who tries to open it? The only languages I know are XHTML and some of CSS, I doubt they'd be able to do anything like that...

I have two computering questions I hope I can find assistance for. One is for me, and one is for my mom.

Mine: I have a Digital Camera with an Lexar Media 32MB MMC Memory Card. I put the card in the slot in my computer, it reads it, everything is dandy. I take the card out, go take some more pictures. Come back to my computer, stick the card back in, and...NOTHING. Light doesn't come on, card isn't seen. I make sure to use the proper removal procedure each time (stopping the process so the light goes off). The only way to make my computer see the card after it's already seen it once is to completely restart. You can imagine how annoying that is...help!

Mom's: My mother has a worse problem. Her computer randomly crashes. Completely shuts down and starts again. She has no idea why.

I had her run Hijack This, and here is her log.

We've just added a new feature to NetworkWorld.com Community: Groups. Our groups are similar to Google and Yahoo groups (only way networkier, of course). They're a way to bring together folks with a particular common interest. You can let anybody with a Network World Community account join your group or limit members to specific people. Member posts appear both in a Web archive and are sent out via e-mail.

When Cisco routers got blamed for an outage in Japan, users rose to the company's defense, saying it had to be misconfiguration of those routers, not the routers themselves, that was to blame. A story on Argonne National Laboratory ditching VoIP phones has some NetworkWorld.com users wondering if the lab could have avoided its problems. Discuss challenges for Cisco. A discussion on IT jargon has turned into a debate between whippersnappers and codgers (also see: Why young people aren't going into IT). One user ponders the re-vestiture of AT&T. Other users debate REAL ID.

Greg Royal explains how Nortel needs to start building communities of vested interest. Essential SharePoint discusses what every SharePoint developer should know. Paul McNamara battles it out with supporters of Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul At issue: Online polls. Brad Reese asks: Why go for multiple CCIE tracks? James Gaskin reports from the ITEC show in Houston. Mark Gibbs gets into it on the topic of "Winrot," or all that kruft that slows Windows PCs

So join in on the discussions and write about what you want others to know!

I get asked a lot, cause I help friends and family with their computers, for recommendations on good brands and models of PCs and Laptops.

I don't have any specific brand recommendations but I tell people to look for PCs with 3 years warranty by default, not by buying additional warranty like at best buy. This gives you a hint that the manufacturer believes in their product.

We just got a lenova laptop which only has a 1 year warranty it seems ok but I"m sure in a year or 2 something will break.

What are the most reliable brands and models? any good websites for finding out this type of info?

Thanks

I am working on a class for a web services API. I have decided to go with WSSE based on this article.

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/12/17/dive.html

In the article it mentions the need to create a nonce. I am trying to figure out the best way about going about this. Anyone have any ideas or articles I can read? I haven't found anything good via google.

I've having discussions with a web designer who doesn't seem to understand revsision control.

I've put the website they are developing into revision control so that chnages made can be tracked, and so they don't need to develop on the live site.

But judging by the emails I'm getting from them they seem to having some trouble with the concept of revision control. I haven't actually asked them to drive the VCS driectly yet , I've been quite happy to commit their changes for them and propagte the chnageset on to the live site.

Is revision control really unusall in this space?

One of my colleges says yes, at that revision control is unique to the Unix development environment and that web and windows developer rarely (read: practically never) use it.

But I still think they should be familiar with what a VCS p=tries to achieve even if there haven't used one.
