Hi I want my customers to be able to write reveiws about the products that I am selling, like they have on amazon if you dont know what I mean.
How would I go about doing this???
Thanks a Lot!

As a beginnner your choosing something relatively ambitious ...
Really this sort of thing suits a website where the products are already
in a database... I think before you carry on learning a little about
databases HAS to be a first step... do you have Access?
For those looking for more advanced information on creating an "average"
review schema

You'd set up a table in a datbase to store user comments.
It'd have to have a field that lists the item that they are commenting on.
You'd then develop a form using some sort of server side language like ASP,
CF, PHP, etc. that would allow a person to enter in their review and have it
submitted into the database.
On each product page, you'd then query the database to pull up all reviews
on the particular product and then have that data formatted to display as
HTML on the screen.
You'll probably want to add a 'in-between' process between the end-user
posting a review and it being displayed. I'd have all reviews entered have a
status of 'pending'. I'd then have a set of pages where you could view all
'pending' reviews and change them individually to 'approved'.
