Re: [mv] write a catalog from scratch?
Dear Shao,
Don't begin from "scratch", unless you're
Mike Heins or an equivalent.
Use the simple catalog as a "red wire" and
simply copy the minivend bits into your own html pages,
possibly created with front page.
Of course, you'd have to make some adjustments, but
just about ALL the example material you'd need for quite
a complex site is in the simple catalog itself.
Try to understand it, and as soon as you do, there's
no stopping you.
Like Birgitt said: don't give up !
