    Hi,

    I'm building another web site myself, using Microsoft Publisher. (Yes I know you all think it's rubbish, but couldn't figure the code thing out)

    I have done an order page, how do I connect it to pay pal and Nochex? I got stuck on this bit.

    Any help, I would be most grateful of.

    Thank You

    Jayne :D

    ugh @ publisher for websites !

    Cant speak for nochex as I dont use it, but paypal, if you login, then go to merchant tools, then to website payments, theres a sort of walk through, eventually you will find code snippets to use, have a play, if you get too stuck post back, Im not an expert in web design but know html and have done a paypal shopping basket for someone before, if an expert comes along, please feel free to take over lol

    forgot to add, look for the bit on the left menu that says "GET STARTED use this now", the thing is, you will HAVE to use code, which is where you will probably struggle since publisher tends to put a lot of un needed stuff in
    anyways have a go and see what happens !

    Hi Jayne,
    You should have just PM'd JoyDivision. He would have had it sorted for you in a flash - that's if he's not too busy on his own site. Woops, I forgot, he's having a break from his computer to help his creativity.

    Cheers, Nigel

    I have learned a lot so far, but I cannot get the hang of coding, way too hard to learn quickly.

    I've been programming since 15 and I still learn new things every day. Because it's ever changing, I've spent literally thousands on books and spend a fair amount of time on programming forums helping people out, cos you learn a lot from it. Big difference between doing it and knowing it, but each step at a time. I'd love to be a fluent JavaScript programmer, but time doesn't agree with me.

    Once I've achieved that I'll have no purpose in life

    ditto, give or take a cpl of years, early versions of basic, assembly, batch files, dos programming, vb, vba, C (I HATE C !) HTML and so on, its often enough to know a little to be able to do some simple things, but then you want to add bits ! and thats when you really need to know the basics of the language etc.

    Well, I was just saying you're not exactly stupid for not being able to pick it up in a few hours. I still spend £20 on new books to pick up about 10 new things and consider it worth while. This is something I do for a living and consider myself to be pretty good at. Didn't read one book and start charging people what I do now.

    I think the difficulty is underestimated because there's so much freeware out there.

    Anyway, moving on...

    I was just pulling your leg :D

    I get really muddled up, when people talk too techy, picked up some of it, but wouldn't like to do it for a living...too much head ache, leave it to the pro's for real web sites.

    I had a designer do my main site, this second one is more business/hobby, so not paying for this one :D
