What I am trying to do : I have to complete two university projects for my professor ! project One : Make an online shop and must use the following components in it Shopping cart, Catalog of products, payment gateway , user login and user activity log . project Two : Implementing of a B2B sell-side portal with negotiation mechanism. As I am familiar with php and My.SQL and I have only 20 days to complete those projects ! I thought it's better to use Joomla I'll be grateful if you can give me an advice thank you ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Ashley Sheridan <ash@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: elk dolk <elkdolk@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: "php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, July 22, 2013 11:45 PM Subject: Re: How to extract php source code from joomla On Mon, 2013-07-22 at 12:18 -0700, elk dolk wrote: > Hi all, > I want to build a website using Joomla 2.5 .
