DSL is a cheap option, although you have limited bandwidth and file transfers. It would be a good first step. > 2. I need to set up credit card payments. Has anyone any experience with > PayPal? Are there any other providers I should consider. It sounds like you're NOT a sys admin type, so DON'T think about storing credit card #'s on your own server yet -- you'd need a lot of security and system admin experience before going there! PayPal Authorize.net Depends on what you want to sell (intellectual property or physical items) Not really the place to ask this... look for e-commerce type sites and articles... liek the ones on ecommercebase.com Justin French -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
