For e-commerce you're better off choosing a CMS which does that out of the box. Joomla has plugins that allow you to do these things, but it can be a hefty CMS, and it's not particularly suited for shops, plus it has a bit of a learning curve and some large security holes (which I know first hand having had to just get a Joomla site to pass a rigorous security test) Lastly, please try not to top post :) Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
