e-commerce and e-books

[clvjr1]

Hello,
My name is Chuck. I am in the process of creating my own website with HTML. My site will be simple and not flashy. I want to use Pay-pal.

This is the way I hope to complete the site:
Main page - buy button - order page - order completion.

I need to know the following:

1) How to I create the download button for the customer to click after the purchase.
2) How to I store, or where do I keep the e-book. It is already pdf formatted.
3) Is there a specific code I need to write for this?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Chuck

What you want is an E-commerce system. There are thousands out there and everybody can tell you their favorite.
Since you are using PayPal look for one that says "PayPal compatible" most have (but look) to see if it says "e-book compatible"

Your server will have to have "mysql" on it for this type of system to work. The price you'll pay is a lot cheaper than you trying to make a hack proof system. (prices start around $100)

Since you are new to this type of system, I suggest you look for a company that will install it and test it for you. It will save on headaches.

Hi,

My name is Chuck. I went to e-junkie. I loved what I saw.

Here is my problem.

I am new to HTML. I have written my website page (It's not live yet). It is only the first page.

I have written and put my e-book into pdf format and saved on my desktop.

I do not know what to do next.

How to I get my e-book connected to my website and to a download button that e-junkie will provide?

The following is how I want my website to work:
Main page - buy button - order page - order completion

I know this is simple, but maybe it will be affective as well.

Thanks

Chuck
