I wan't to make a system with fake money and fake things to buy that you could use on the site. so I was thinking that i needed some kind of shopping cart but that would charge the member (logged in with password [i need help with that too]) with a fake money system that works kind of like points (money/ points can be awarded by me or can be gained by playing games). Then with those points/money they could buy stuff that would help them with the site. any ideas. Im totally clueless about this, all i know is that i want something like that but i dont know how to make it. help?:confused:

This would be quite a complicated task. I suggest you start reading up on your Server Side Language of choice. I don't believe it matters which one... but I would pick one and start reading all you can get your hands on about it.

I don't really believe that any one of them would be better than another. It's really a matter of opinion.

Yes, you would probably end up writing the majority of the code -- which is a good thing.

If you want someone to say do this i will:

learn PHP

goto http://www.w3schools.com (its free)

most carts are in php now and you can run it for free as opposed to an ASP site which requires a windows server or a linux server with retail software attached.

How long will it take? that depends on you. I know 13 year old kids that learned php at a high level programming level within 6 months and other people that in 1 year dont know how to do includes, so it all depends on your learnign ability.
