I am trying to make an online shop site. It should include the regulars like a homepage etc. but also a stock page.

But unlike any other shopping site, this one sells personalised number plates. So I think that I might need a part where you type in your personalised number plate, words/numbers etc.

How would I make this work, and how should I go about making the site?

Are there any programs I could use?

Any Tips/Help/Advice would be a real help!

The old numberplate one huh? Unless you're Craig (if so, how's the police going?), which it's about a million to one against, i personally won't be trying to help along possibly a future competitor : P

Actually, i'm not at a point where i could anyway mate : )

It would take a lot more than just HTML, you'd need to have a Web Script create to perform the tasks of checking these Number Plates, Ordering them, etc... and this would take some time to do. Depending on who you host your Web Site with, you'd probably need to have the script created in either CGI-Perl, PHP or ASP which would access to the Reg Numbers, and do whatever is needed with the data.

If you don't know enough about this, then you should consider talking to some pro's in the business, as I couldn't help you anywhere near as much as you need for an E-Commerce business, sorry.

How much HTML do you know?

Oh no, absolutely not. There's no way we can "help" you with this.

You need at least a year's worth of GOOD experience with coding to do this, you can't just "learn". Furthermore, it would be worth about £1000 to a CHEAP webdeveloper.
