I am not actually selling numbers of items but need people to be able to sign
up for a membership on the website and be able to pay with a credit card.
Not sure how to do this in FrontPage.??????? What are all the steps that need
to be involved. Does this come with basic FrontPage?? What are extensions do
I need them and how do I get them. How about a message Board? Is that part
of the basic Frontpage and how do you do that also??

Thanks,
Barb
 
Pay-Pal might be a better way to do this and a lot cheaper. Have you talked
this over with your bank?

FrontPage doesnt "do" credit cards, it just makes web pages.

You might look into PayPal. It's suitable for a very small business or
hobby type thing. Basically you have an account with them hooked up to a
bank account, people use your email address to pay paypal with a credit
card, and paypal puts the money in your account minus a small fee.

That way, you don't have to deal with all the security issues and so on of
credit cards in your site. (Since you ask these questions, you are _not_
qualified to do that yet.)

A message board of primitive nature is in FrontPage. ("Discussion web")
Though you can get much better ones with open source software and a little
cooperation by your host.

You need a book. Ask questions in the newsgroup when you get stuck on
specific points.
