If your user doesn't already have a CyberCash account, he won't be able to
get one now, so another vendor's requirements will have to be worked into
it.

Hello
Does anybody know of a good resource for planning, developing, and building
an online store front with ColdFusion?
Including search capabilities, credit card transactions, etc.
I am already studying from Ben Forta's book on ColdFusion, but I need more
resources as far as planning the site and how to do it with coldFusion.
Thanks
Brian
