Great...the bit that was worrying me most looks like it will actually be the easiest bit. The hard thing to work out is what to make a website on...I need a project!

Give me time...I'll be setting up through you guys when my brain gets working...

You could always set up a blog ^_^ InstantPro has that built-in.

Haha...it was coming close to just doing that, but my life isn't nearly as exciting enough :p

I have an idea now, ideas for a domain name in motion (all seem to be available to buy so far) and a theme that is quite manageable.

Expect to see a work in progress very soon...

Thanks for your help :D

While I appriciate it's easy to blame us and our system, the fault is in fact with Google. See you other post here and Google's own blog post here. Not sure there was any need to post this more than once.

SSL up-&-running; eagrely-awaiting shopping-cart... ideally integrated into Quickbooks [accounting...], Outlook [contacts...].

Formally-used Quicken [IRS happy with raft of reports & receipts]; guess many are exploiting party-plan sales as route to second-income.

Can you make sub-pages (insert correct web-jargon here) within the page on Instant Pro?

I'm not sure if you can - but would like to have main categories appearing on the left/top, but would like to separate these heading pages with several pages only accessible from a said page (i.e. a bit of a hierarchy of pages)

(if I've confused you, I'm sorry - it's not too clear :S)

Not as a standard no. (If I think you're asking what you are)

There are some ways that you can easily just work around this however, the most simple being using hyperlinks within the pages. It's all I did with mine, but it takes some effort to make it look "pretty".

Hmmm... has probably got some good ideas however.

As Warhunt says you need to add separate links to your 'deeper' pages and also remove the page from the main navigation.

Please see my comments in this similar thread.

You could also use a 'Dropdown menu' here's my InstantPro dropdown menu demo created for another poster.
This type of menu would keep everything tidy - in practice you would also remove the sub-pages from the main navigation as required.

Hope that gives you some ideas :¬)

Thanks for the ideas guys - just checked out the comments in the other thread and I think that covers it (i.e. add the pages and remove them from the navigation bar and add a text link into them). I am assuming that the dropdown bar you have also suggested could involve these text links?

Wonderful...
