Hi peeps...since so many people here are experts in all kinds of webdesign areas...i was wondering...whats the best way to go about making a shopping cart website. I have an uncle that has a small business, and whats to start selling online......is it complicated? i imagine it to be! making it so its safe, so people buy with credit cards etc?...sounds so messy...i guess also, updating the site has to be made easy.....

i was told that java was a good method.....i did java at university...but, ufff i hate it!

anyways, it will be interesting to read what you people suggest...thanks!
