Howzit guys,

I'm going to be doing an online shop as a side thing for a family member of mine. What they want is a site, much like OcUk's site. You add products to a basket then check up and pay for it via credit card or bank transfer. After that an automatic email gets sent to the user.

Would this involve a SQL database?

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Yup, you'd usually have a database for all your products, categories and maybe basket.

You'd also possibly store order information and maybe other payment processing information. E.g. IPN data if using Paypal.
