    a complete clone of the amazon page????
    save the page in firefox SAVE AS --> COMPLETE WEBSITE
    then you have a html-file and a folder with all the graphics
    then open it in some html editor like frontpage or dreamweaver or preferably a texteditor, and edit it like you want.
    then put it back up to a webspaceaccount by ftp.

    just make sure you don't do anything illegal because it is very easy to miss something

    Amazon has put a lot of money to make sure people don't steal there ideas

    Hmmm

    I have now followed Happy's guidelines and discovered that there are 2500+ lines of code - most of which I don't understand. Cloning this is above my skill level

    So I am still looking for someone to do this. Let me know what you would charge.

    You can't just copy Amazon's code if you want to stay legit, hope you understand that.

    and... 2500 lines of code? Does it make coffee too?

    Something like this shouldn't cost you more than 500 US$, and it *SHOULD* work for more than one book. Make that a design requirement or you'll end up with crappy code ;-)

    BTW, my CMS could do the trick, but it doesn't look much like that amazon page, and i can't get it to be a clone of that easilly.
    Have a look (link in signature), and if you like it PM me. Depending on what modifications to the base CMS you want, i could do it for 300 euro or a bit more (negotiable)..

    Happy to oblige happpy That link is http://dj.43.gs/book/

    BTW I just got

    " an infraction at Digital Point Forums.
    Reason: Thread Started In Wrong Category"
    ​
    As I thought this was the right category, can someone put me straight and tell me where it should be? (They just penalized me, they did not tell me what I should have done, unfortunately)
