Designing A Website

I've just purchased Create and am in the process of building a website for my small business. In reviewing the on-line manual topics, I see no reference to including a shopping cart feature for my web. Is this possible with Create?

Also I need help in "undoing" the repetition of all the "Home Page" information on all subsequent pages. I DO want to use the same background color, but each page needs to be formatted differently. What am I doing wrong?

If someone can help me, I would certainly appreciate it.

Thank you!

The <> HTML tool lets you put any html whatsover on the page. That's where you'd put the CART HTML (assuming you have a CART of some sort).

Make a new Layer, add it to each page, set the color on the layer, and voila - all done from one place.

Home Page Info - what do you mean? the meta tags like description, keywords? Each page can have it's own Info -> Web -> "Page uses custom HTML" - and you set it there.

Okay, I think I've got it--CREATE will turn any graphic, text, photo, etc. into HTML. PayPal will supply my CART.

When I added pages at the Master Layer, I thought I was adding blank pages (so I could design each differently) but they all were duplicates of the Master Layer.

Thank you, Andrew.

Just add regular pages (without the master layer connected to it) if you want them to be different.

Usually, there are some items on a site that are shared across all pages - like the site navigation at the top or side for example.

Makes sense. Thanks again, Andrew. You've been a big help!
