web layout for a seller / online shop

[Ronaldo]

Hi guys out of interest is there any layout or template one can use to make a online shop?

I know you can just make one and add carts but i want something that offers good design that displays top products.

I'v seen many sites which look the same, they use same template, an example would be www.ultraleds.co.uk, is there a free way to use these templates or even small fee?

I'v seen a site that is a proper business site design, looks like next would use lol but expensive .

many thanks

Googling "website templates" returns 37,500,000 hits... the first one has free templates. They look OK too.

That's osCommerce, which is free/open-source: http://oscommerce.com/
There are a number of shopping cart solutions like that available, and oscommerce is one of the most popular.

It shouldn't require much in the way of advanced web-development skills until you want to really change the look and feel of the site. I recommend posting in the H,G&P forum if you need help - there should be lots of people there with knowledge of osCommerce and/or can recommend the best shopping-cart system at the moment .

yh thanks mate appreciated

found http://www.zen-cart.com its like http://oscommerce.com/ but i think http://oscommerce.com/ is better.

is there a good PHP editor that works like frontPage/web express?

can i have the thread moved to "HTML, Graphics & Programming " please?

cheers
