Though I've not used it before, I'm working with OSCommerce with three different clients right now. So far, it seems pretty good, though I'm having to do extensive customization.

I would also like someone to give me a pointer re: shopping cart! I am using NOP Shopping cart, which uses a javascript file and is nice and speedy at user side. Each page with products on it, and then each product has a planted section of script, thus:

Quantity:

Now - this works really well, BUT, with over 2-3,000 items each with ID, name, price, plus also a description to add, and I have them all in an excel document from the client - is there ANY way I can export the excel file into an html doc without having to re-type or copy/paste the whole lot one at a time? Bear in mind that I have no idea about mysql / online db's!

Many thanks, anyone who can enlighten me!

OSCommerce is the one I have used before. It has a nice admin panel, is free (!) and quite heavy duty. Having said that, it can be very hard to customise OSCommerce effectivly owing to it's table based design spread over hundreds of files. It can be done though http://www.bydon.org/shop
