Im starting to get a website underway, And need some help from the people of sunny sunny sheffield.
I need to incoroporate a check box system, simular to a shopping cart on the t'internet, that will allow users to click a box, and have the selection appear on their personal list.

I would also like to use a regestration system (no emaul confirmation, just to basicall set up a user/pass so only said user can access their data.

could anyone help?

What programming language do you intend to use? This might be decided by where you host it. There are a number of free programs that will provide free shopping cart systems, if one can be bent sufficiently to suit your purposes.

I'm not sure how much you know, but guess that your a newbie.

You require a programming language or script or something because plain old HTML will not allow you to do user specific stuff.

To do any of the login/per user customisation you will need some sort of serverside code in addition to the html the user sees.

A common combination is PHP with a MySQL database that many hosts will provide quite cheaply.

You may want to look at perl CGI scripts that store their data in files rather than a database (I can't help with this option).

Finally, Java. Though I wouldn't recommend this for what you want as hosts will be expensive.

Feel free to PM/email me if you want more...

Got it sorted now using access database, as opposed to a shopping cart system. Just working on the logon screens and regestration .

Thanks guys

Access database with web frontend?

I'm curious, do mind letting me have a look when you have something to show?

Are you still thinking of making this a website or a desktop application?

Why would it be a desktop application?

He can use an Access databse with ASP.

I knew someone who had a website with an access database back end. They didn;t keep it that way for long like.

'Can' is not the same as 'should' ;)

You are, of course, entirely correct! :)

Suppose it depends what you're doing. I created a Fantasy Football site for the World Cup for my mates to use - had about 50 teams on there, and it all worked fine with an Access Database with ASP.NET.
