Hi all developers out there!
I have doubts doing the following:
1)How do i do a shopping cart ?I only know how to retrieve the available products from the database and display it.
2)How so i display images ?

Hi siaoa84 and welcome to the forums.

I would seriously recommend grabbing an existing shopping cart system purely because you are a beginner. The best one I've come across is CactuShop (www.cactushop.com) and gives you a lot of control over every aspect of the design and the products you want to list.. it's a very powerful piece of kit... as a beginner I would avoid trying to reinvent the wheel.

I'm not sure how you are trying to display images...

I presume you have them stored in a database.. I would advise against this. Instead, store only the filename in the database, and you can then just pull the filename out and use that.

I hope I have guessed your meaning, you didnt really make yourself clear.

Hope this helps.

hi!
i am only storing the file name,not as ole object.

in that case its simple:

[img]images/<%=objRS([/img]" border=0>

Just thought I would chip in to recommend www.cactushop.com aswell. I am just finishing off a site made with it, and love the fact that you can get amongst the code and make your little tweaks.
